Summary

[edit]
Description

The Nieuport II was a sport and racing aircraft which first flew in 1910. One example reached a top speed of 74mph and held the world speed record for all distances under 100km (62 miles). Manufactured between 1910 and 1914, small numbers saw military service with France, Argentina and Siam. This example is a IIN with the seemingly tiny 28hp two-cylinder Nieuport engine. It was constructed in 1921 at the request of the museum and as it was built and donated by Nieuport-Delage, it is probably best described as being late-production, rather than a replica. It is on display in the Pioneers Hall. Musée de l'air et de l'espace. Le Bourget Airport, Paris, France.
