If I remember correctly :confused: , the Shuttleworth Gladiator’s Norwegian Air Arm colour scheme of the past few years, was applied for a Norwegian documentary or film.
Does anyone have any more details about the film; film title; what networks showed it; whether it’s still possible to obtain copies; etc?

Hi!
As far as I know our supply of this video on VHS-format is starting to dry up.
I know there is some thoughts about getting it back into “production”, but this time in DVD format, possibly with some extras and sub-titles.
However, this is of course an economical issue….
But, for the time being, we will empty our stock of VHS tapes.
Please send an email at won(a)warbirds.no or visit Warbirds of Norway at our
website at www.warbirds.no
and I will pass on your request.
Regards,
Erik Hoelsæter

Hi,
The video is titled ‘Fiendtlige fly over Oslo’. It’s a 23 minute film detailing the air operations over Oslo on the day of the German invasion of Norway. It has a number of interviews with some of the Gladiator pilots who took part in the operations.
It was made by Ny Films As for Warbirds of Norway (WoN). Do a search for Warbirds of Norway on Google and you should find their website.
I believe they were going to do an English version of the video, but I’m not sure how that is progressing.
I don’t know if it was on any of the networks, possibly Discovery? I was sent a copy by one of the WoN members.
