Beautiful Gladiator :pilot: ... Pat Pattle was the first british ace of WW2 I became familiar with. When i first started reading about WW2 British RAF subjects. He was the first pilot i came across. You nailed his plane sir.

Very nice Gladiator

 

I don't know anything about Pat but I'm certainly going to look up his story on the net

 

Pat looks like he's got everything "in hand" and under control which I'm sure is a necessity for a fighter pilot and ace!

Very nice,.....but the codes IY-K on the right hand side are incorrect,......it should read as per the other side,......YK-I,.... as YK was the squadron code.

 

Cheers

Really Nice build, love the displaced controls and the wheels which look just like they have been running in a dusty environment. I thought the underside of the upper the wing should be silver or possibly half white and black like the lower surface.

All your comments are welcome, but please just consider that I did this model some years ago with what was available then, so I could have missed some points.
