The engine in this case was usually the 80-horsepower Le Rhone rotary. It was more reliable than the Gnome and despite the equal rating gave a few more horsepower.
It's Le Rhône (alt+ numpad 147) mon ami; I know you're a stickler for grammer! Fabulous work! and I like the 'wear' details on the edges of the fuselage too! Is the box cover illustration on your Eindeckker project the classic Richthofen-Hawker duel? The upper wing on the Nieuport was dicey in a steep dive; I used to lose it and die ingloriously in Red Baron from my own poor aerobatics. Unless of course, I was up against Guynemer in his Nieuport which was vastly superior to my Eindekker; in which case I simply got killed...every time!
