RHAF Gloster Gladiator MkI         

In 1937 A Greek expatriate in Egypt, Stylianos Sarpakis donated two Gloster Gladiator MkI to the RHAF. Both were finished in silver overall and one of the two was named after its donor. They were used as advanced trainers and when war broke out, as they were fully armed, they were used in combat.

New information that has come to light indicates that the aircraft named "Stylianos Sarpakis" was actually the one with serial number ΔΣ 1. These appeared on the fuselage and under the lower wings. The updated decal sheet can be printed to any scale required.
