Have just been reading a little bit about "Pat" Pattle. I was on the verge of selecting "Other" and putting all of the above for what a fighter pilot needs but Pattle was very successful in the Gladiator against German front line gear. This is what has influenced my vote! Mind you, the Glad wasn't half bad!
