Photo Nieuport

Well Clint

Actually I didn't bother to look at the British Nieuport. Just checked my French and US (Casari)
sources.

I have no idea how the SFA or Nieuport worked with their order/deliveries.
I just can't believe SFA ordered their aircraft in such a complete mess/disorder.
It is more likely that Nieuport, for some reason, was allowed to deliver the ordered aircraft
in the terrible mix up we are now facing.

Neither can I understand why SFA and Aviation Militaire allowed Nieuport to waste time and
Government money developing all those incredible amount of different types whose performance
improvement was basically none....

I take it you still don't have Casari's book? I can scan the relevant Nieuport pages for you
if you like. If interested send me an e-mail. I have the same one.

Cheers
Stig
