Hi Gary, Smithy

Thanks for the replies.

I'm not too keen on aircraft hanging from wires. There's so much more to see when they are at ground level, but I suppose it does free up much needed space.

I don't know how authentic the codes are as when the aircraft was donated to the Norwegian Air Force it was devoid of any camouflage colours. I have seen a couple of colour photos of the aircraft in the wooden shed and it appears to be all one colour, namely a light grey.

I have been informed that during the voyage from the UK to Norway some of the Gladiators were repainted while on board HMS Glorious. Perhaps trhis was one of them.
