 | | His early Nieuport II (that's a roman numeral two, not the later famous type eleven), flown at Rheims in July 1910, was judged by many as the best in the show. |
 | | His Nieuport IV-G, flown for the Italian Army Air Corps in North Africa by Capitano Moizo, made, on October 24, 1911, the second-ever reconnaisance flight by a military aeroplane, and perhaps the first bombing run. |
 | | Although Edouard was killed in a flying accident on 15th September 1911, and his brother Charles de Nié Port, who continued the work, died in a crash landing barely a year later on 24 January, 1913, Eduard's designs continued to be built by the company and licensed for production internationally. |
