NIEUPORT 11

Použité

This full-scale N.11 replica has been put together to be as externally accurate to the original as possible, even requiring a trip to the Le Bourget Museum in Paris to view the last original N.11 to get much of the detail work correct. Internally, the aircraft benefits from a steel tube fuselage, but wire-braced, more like the original. It has a 110 hp Rotec R.2800 radial for power which has proved satisfactory throughout the life of the aircraft so far. The aircraft offers delightful handling, docile manners all the way to the ground, but we have had our fun and it is time to move it along to the next loving owner.
