Perhaps ,maybe ,the Macchi-Nieuport 10 built under licence in Italy

[Dave_Kent]

Not the designation I'm looking for

[Breguet]

And the hunt is on..........

[RobW]

Nieuport 10AR - six cabane struts and the extra cut away for the rear cockpit. AR - observer in the rear.

still circling, no kill yet

[Rbailey]

Nieuport 20 - I think the struts are splayed.

Hi,

Perhaps, this is the Nieuport 20. This was the Nieuport 12 equipped with 110 hp Le Rhone and semicircular cowling faired into the fuselage in a way similar to the Nieuport 12bis.

Regards

Marek

The machine is A6740, one of 21 Nieuport 20s delivered to the RFC. The major difference between the 20 and the 12 was the use of a 110hp Le Rhone, though there were a few detail differences as well.

Richard was all over this one, but had the misfortune to guess all the other variants.

RBailey finally finished it off.

I have split the point, favouring RBailey, who also gets 995.

Dave
