Archaeopteryx is the archetypal transitional fossil but of course your side of 
the table just shifts ground and calls for a transitional fossil between it and 
the birds or between it and the lizards. It wouldn't matter how many 
transitional fossils are found in this series, the creationists will simply 
repeat the exercise in ever smaller increments.
Yes Apo A-I Milano is microevolution and it is an enhancement. And lots of 
these in succession and in isolation eventually become a new species -- 
macroevolution. 
Since no creationist to the best of my knowledge, has ever given a definition 
of 'kind', I doubt that you would break the mould but we live in hope. Are you 
prepared to offer such a definition? If you are, (or even if you're not) which 
Arkian 'kind' is the ancestor (by microevolution of course!) of the kangaroo? 
Or of the lemur? Or of the hawaiian carnivorous caterpillar as per the snippet 
below?
I also have an historical perspective on the subject of evolution from the 
creationist point of view. Are you interested? Might give you some ideas.

Snippet from 
http://www.ctahr.hawaii.edu/acad/CTAHRInAction/Dec_05/caterpillar.asp.

Our state is home to 350 known species of Hyposmocoma. Most of these species 
are endemic to a single island. Since first identifying the Maui caterpillar, 
Rubinoff and Haines have found different species of snail-eating Hyposmocoma on 
Molokai, Kauai, and the Big Island, revealing how our islands are hotbeds of 
evolution in which new organisms and survival strategies arise at a remarkable 
rate.
