  Nieuport - Running Bare
  by muz2142

  This scaled-down replica of a World War One Nieuport fighter was seen at the 2008 Festival of Flight at Wattsbridge Airfield, Toogoolwah, Queensland, Australia. It was captured here taxiing in to its display position. It was minus its fabric covering which displayed its structure well. And no, it didn’t fly during the Festival. Presumably it will be covered at a future date. The photo was taken with a Nikon D70 camera.
