AMStreet Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 I have just dug out a number of Airfix Gladiator kits. One of the subjects I want to do is a Mk1 as used by the Iraqi Air Force during the campaign in 1941. I have a set of markings from DP Casper which covers this affair, although the instructions are, in my opinion, not worth much. Looking around the web I have not been able to find much information on the configuration of the Iraqi a/c. One of the few illustrations that I have been able to track down gives me some idea of the markings and colours but some other details seem to be missing. For instance, were the Iraqi Gladiators fitted with the Watts propeller and was a sand filter fitted? None of the sources I have seen are entirely clear on these points and I wonder if anyone here has an answer. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Boak Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 If it was a Mk.I then it had the Watts. In RAF service anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
