all three always in short supply

Sorry about the wrong translation... english to swedish to english... Their swedish names are in fact Faith, Hope and Love.

Infact this perticular one is a swedish J8 Gloster Gladiator.

The swedish F19 division flew as a voulenteers unit in finland and where Swedens only contribution to the air war of ww2.

My memory may be faulty (usually is) But if I recal it right, they were engined with beaufighter engines as no other engines were around. Anyone remember that? Or is my mind leaking again?
