<p>c/n 326.
Original British military serial ‘A4719’.
Twenty two ex Royal Flying Corps R.E.8s entered Belgian service, all being fitted with 180hp Hispano Suiza engines and SPAD style cowlings, which gave them quite a different look. This is one of only two surviving RE8s and the only one to see Belgian service.
It is on display at what is known as the Brussels Air Museum, although it is actually the Air and Space Section of the Royal Museum of the Armed Forces and Military History.
Brussels, Belgium.
