FSAddon Gloster Gladiator

[JamieC]

I know this is probably a long shot....but does anyone know if there is anywhere to still purchase the FSAddon Gladiator?

After seeing the beautiful Fighter Collection Gladiator at the weekend I decided I need to have it in my hangar in FSX, especially after seeing the repaint of it on here

If anyone can help that would be great

Thanks
Jamie

Francois/FSAddon has made the Gladiator available for download without charge here: https://fssupport.com/fsblog/shop/

Francois has many FSAddon releases for FSX still available for purchase at his Flyin' and Ridin' shop!

Cheers!

That's great!

Thanks for posting, I was willing to part with some cash for the Gladiator but to be able to get it for free is even better!

The fsaddon site is no longer active.
Is it still possible to get hold of the Gladiator?

[ToniJH]

There is addon of Gloster available Icarusgold online store website.

[zswobbie1]

It actually was freeware for a very short while, from Fsaddons.

Thanks.

There is addon of Gloster available Icarusgold online store website.

I own both (but don't use them anymore, I've moved over to the dark side). There's a big difference in quality. The icarusgold offering doesn't even come close to the FS Addon offering!

This is of course just my humble opinion.

Thanks for the info.. It's definitely the formally freeware FSaddon version that I'm looking for.

If you do manage to find a copy of the FSAddon FSX Gloster Gladiator there is a repaint that depicts the airworthy Gloster Gladiator II owned by The Fighter Collection, based at Duxford, it was painted by John Terrell.

Lol... with my luck, I'll end up with the paint, & not the plane..

Get in touch with Francois! I am sure he'd be happy to help!

Lots of repaints at Flightsim.com Here in our Warbirds Library is a Gladiator for P3D

If you want an FS9 portover to use in FSX here is a link at Simviation: https://simviation.com/1/download-fi...p&fileId=55593 It's not FSADDon's but it IS a Gladiator.

[JamieC]

Hopefully you find it, It's now one of my favourites to fly!

Makes a nice pairing with the FCS Fury for a nice 1930s biplane combo!

[zswobbie1]

Sorted & it is great.
I'd forgotten completely about the Fury... I've had it for ages in FS2004.
Thanks for giving me a brain jog.
I've actually got most of the FCS stuff, under the Abacus name, & they install as FCS.

If you search for Gladiator on Flight Sim.com you should find my FS2004 / FSX Gladiator
This was built based on the real one at Old Warden.

Thanks Dave. Yours was the first Gladiator installed & kept.
I far prefer supporting freeware developers, who support our community.

Thanks for all your planes.
I've flown many miles with them, in FS2004 & P3Dv4.5. I love the low's 'n slow's.

Here you can find some ideas for repaints:

@ flightsim f/l one may find many excellent repaints by a one Peter Watkins for Dave's rather excellent Gloster Gladiator! - for both FS2004 and FSX!

Cheers!

The Gloster Gladiator by Dave Molyneaux with a texture by Peter Watkins (FS9 model and screenshots were taken in FS9).








Freeware so definitely worth the money! And from what I have seen, much better than the Icarus offering. (Although that is perhaps not very nice from me to say.)

Cheers,
Huub

Indeed Huub, the model and especially with Watkins' repaint efforts proves to be very immersive! Glad to see you still around, Dave! I hope your DH.4 sees the light of day...possibly? especially the mail carrier and civil transport iterations, for FS9/X (previews of the WIP shots are still somewhere in FS2004 threads, I believe) ...I was really looking forward to them, back in the day, but understandably real-life often enough gets in the way - I believe your skills, Dave, would have really done the DH.4 justice, especially for us Golden-Age enthusiasts!

Cheers!
