Hello,
Until I decided to start painting my P-38, I was thinking about my next project for GB#42. I would like to build Gladiator Mk.II N5832 flown by Pattle late 1940 and early 1941 in 80 Sqn...
Is it really this Gladiator which wore the Pattle family crest under cockpit ?
As we can see, if this Gladiator is N5832, no code worn... Some source give this aircraft with the code YK-W... => 112 Sqn Gladiators
And others without code (or not known) => Håkans Aviation page - Gloster Gladiator in 80 RAF Squadron service
The other problem is the camo scheme !!! => => too much possibilities here...!!! => shadow camouflage with sky undersurfaces, shadow camouflage with black & white undersurfaces, shadow camouflage with alu & black undersurfaces and the sames with DE/DG camouflage
Thanks
Stéph
