Nieuport 17 replica from Finland

This Nieuport 17 replica was build by Jorma Kettunen and it's powered by Rotax 582. The replica isn't 1:1, I think it's 1:2 or 1:3. The maximum speed of his aircraft is 95 mph / 152 km/h. The aircraft was donated to Kaakkois-Suomen Ilmailumuseo (South-Carelian Aviation Museum) during the LIAS05. (Lappeenranta International Air Show 2005). I have much more photos if anybody like to see more.

That is a 7/8 scale Graham Lee design, like the one I am building. (but I'm finishing mine as a Siemens-Schuckert DI) Nice looking bird!
