"Contender for a 1926 Royal Naval deck-landing practice and seaplane conversion trainer was the Handley Page Harrow Mk.I, N205. Flown on trials at RAF Martlesham Heath, this two-seat re-design of the Hendon / Hanley slotted-wing torpedo-carriers was the first aircraft to have automatic slots, but lost out to the Blackburn Ripon."
