Unknown trainer, France 1940

Can anyone identify this trainer (perhaps a Miles?), photographed in France, in 1940:



Thanks,

Looks like a Miles Magister to me. Down to the anti-spin strakes that wouldn't be present on earlier Hawks.

Thanks for the quick ID.
Is it with French or British markings?

British. The French didn't have any Magisters.
