The Fairey Flycatcher was a British single-seat biplane carrier-borne fighter aircraft made by Fairey Aviation Company which served in the period 1923 to 1934. It was produced with a conventional undercarriage for carrier use, although this could be interchanged with floats for catapult use aboard capital ships. ==Design and development== The Flycatcher was designed to meet the requirements of Specification N6/22 for a carrier and floatplane fighter to replace the Gloster Nightjar, powered by either the Armstrong Siddeley Jaguar or the Bristol Jupiter radial engines. Both Fairey and Parnall submitted designs to meet this specification, with Fairey producing the Flycatcher, and Parnall, the Parnall Plover.〔Taylor 1974, p. 113.〕 The first of three prototype Flycatchers made its maiden flight on 28 November 1922, powered by a Jaguar II engine,〔Thetford 1978, p. 119.〕 although later being fitted with a Jupiter IV.〔Taylor 1974, p. 114.〕 Small orders were placed for both the Flycatcher (for nine aircraft) and Plover (for 10 aircraft) to allow service evaluation.〔Taylor 1974, pp. 114–115.〕 After trials, the Flycatcher was ordered for full production.
