Title: Do we have a member in Italy who could help with some research?
Post by: RLWP on June 15, 2017, 08:24:11 PM

I need some help with research for the model of a Nieuport X Hydro I am building: http://forum.ww1aircraftmodels.com/index.php?topic=8534.0

These aeroplanes were used by the French Navy in the Mediterranean during 1914-1916. I have managed to find a few pictures of those aeroplanes

Nieuport-Macchi also built these early Nieuport Hydros in Italy, I'm not sure if they are IVs, VIs or Xs.

I don't know how to form a Google search to find images of the Nieuport Macchi hydroplanes. What Italian terms should I be using to search form them? Assuming there are images on the internet

Can anyone help?

Richard

Idrovolanti nieuport macchi is the term.
I do not remember nieuport macchi idroplane photos, but i'll give a look.

Ermeio, firstlying my apologies for not replying sooner. I have been away from a reliable phone signal

I am very interested to see what you can find. I think searching on Google in a language that it thinks is 'correct ' will be more successful. When I search, Google seems to try to correct my searches by translating them
