| i know there is the one at duxford. i have many photos of that and the beaufighter being restored next to it. unfortunatly that gladiatio is not flyable.
quick update on the shuttleworth collections example, its grounded. they took the magneto off it after the lysanders magneto packed up away at a display to fly it home. got the lysander home and then damamged the gladiators magneto on the lysander at the next display.
so there are no other Gladiators flyable out there? | |

Country: | I wouldn't be quite so sure Ollie in the time between flying legends and the autumn air show both wings have gone on and a large number of the control lines and plumbing has been installed. The Beaufighter society was really on the hustle at the AAS, gathering funds.
