From what I have found on the www... the cockpits on these were pretty sparse...and this seat is probably too fancy .... instruments were a fuel gauge and a tachometer

Ok ..so I had this completely covered with the kit tissue and was starting to add some paint when the model slipped from my hand and received some stringer damage.[img][img]http://i770.photobucket.com/albums/xx341/wmikedavis/nieuportfinalpictures011.jpg[/img]
After further review I decided to strip all of the kit tissue and apply silkspan and more stringers[/img]
Next was some extra detail for the engine[img][img]http://i770.photobucket.com/albums/xx341/wmikedavis/nieuportfinalpictures010.jpg[/img]
Rigging complete time to install the cowling[/img]
Decals on [img][img]http://i770.photobucket.com/albums/xx341/wmikedavis/nieuportfinalpictures016.jpg[/img]
