As the Secretary of State for Air announced in the House of Commons in the famous debate of May 8, 1940, a squadron of Gloster Gladiator fighters was dispatched to Norway in an attempt to check the German air power. These machines are not so fast as the Hurricanes or Spitfires, but are extremely manouverable. In fact the Gladiator, besides being the finest biplane ever produced is probably one of the most useful all round machines. Of all our machines it is the best suited to withstand the cold and rough usage on an expidition of its kind. Undated. Volume 2, Page555.
