Vickers VIM

The VIM or Vickers Instructional Machine was a trainer biplane aircraft built for the Republic of China by Vickers from war-surplus stocks of Royal Aircraft Factory F.E.2d parts, powered by a surplus Rolls-Royce Eagle engine, but fitted with an entirely new nacelle, providing dual controls for the pupil and instructor.

Thirty-five were built and supplied from 1920.
