EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Gloster SS37, a remarkable aircraft that, despite being built primarily with components of the legendary Gloster Gauntlet, bore a striking resemblance to the iconic Gloster Gladiator. The SS37 was not a commercial airliner or a variant of the Gladiator designed for passenger transport, but rather an experimental aircraft developed by the Gloster Aircraft Company in the late 1930s. The SS37, with its distinctive rounded wings and open cockpit, was an evolution of the Gauntlet design, which was widely used by the Royal Air Force for fighter and trainer roles during the 1930s. The SS37 was intended to explore the potential of using the Gauntlet's proven design for a new transport aircraft, with increased size and capacity. The photograph captures the SS37 in flight, its wings outstretched and its engine roaring, as it soars through the sky. The image offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the ingenuity and innovation of the aviation industry during a time when new aircraft designs were pushing the boundaries of what was possible. The SS37 may not have gone into production, but it remains an important part of aviation history, demonstrating the close relationship between the Gauntlet and the Gladiator, and the potential for adaptation and evolution in aircraft design.
