The nieuport 17 was a French biplane fighter used in WWI. This fighter joined the front in 1916 and was crucial in ending the German domination of the sky. Almost all the French Aces flew on it: Georges Guynemer, Maurice Boyau, Jean Navarre... Even my great grand-father took a ride with it :) The nieuport was used by both British and French and remain in service until the end of the war.
