Sqdn or any of the RFC squadrons that flew the Nieuport 17 for the RFC
in 1917!  

Ah, but you said that it had been flown by every *country*, not by pilots from every country, which is different entirely.

I was making the point that the Australian Flying Corps never used the Nieuport 17 at all, and indeed Tom Young's list doesn't include it.

Shane, proud that my forebears forbore to use the ugly damn things ;-)
