CORRECTION TO 24-11-25 RESULTS
Simon (simondix) was also correct, and nearly got the Knows Art for his detailed identification.
Apologies to Simon for omitting him from the initial results post :$
Cheers, Mike.

The terrific trio got this one.
Mick (woody901), PeteP, Pete (Motormouse) all spotted the Caproni Ca 310.
PeteP gave me a good service history, whilst Pete (MM) identified it as the only surviving example, under restoration in 2024, so he gets the Knows Art.

Our featured aircraft was a Gladiator MkI, specifically RT o O aka K7974.
PeteP was first in, with the precise identity plus some history, to take the Knows Art award.

AllanL and Mick (woody901) gave the same, with extensive background, but as the KA goes to first most accurate, I'm giving them both a Bonus Star as compensation.

Ben scored a Gold badge.

Pete (Motormouse), Simon and Joe (blanston12) receive silver.

HI Mike,

Thanks very much for putting in the time an effort to bring us another year of this very enjoyable (and sometimes frustrating!) quiz.

All the best to you and Margaret for Christmas and the New Year.
