Smile Another Gladiator flies!

Peter Kynsey took The Fighter Collection's Gladiator aloft for its first flight on Thursday 11th July after a lengthy rebuild.

The prospect of seeing two of these wonderous machines flying together soon is indeed something to look forward to. And yet even a third, I think somebody else in the UK is building one up using a wreck recovered from Norway.

Very well done all at TFC, look forward to seeing her fly as soon as possible. Any chance of a test flight during Legends tomorrow...?

Outstanding....have been following that rebuild in Aeroplane Monthly.
Well done.

Quite correct KK, I can't even blame my watch as I adjusted it after the 31st of June...
