Belgian Spad XVI ??

Good evening,

A couple of years ago I asked for help in identifying the only Spad XVI which was used by the Belgian Air Service. I recently discovered a new picture which closely resembles the Spad XVI although the "engine buldge" look slightly too small to me. Of course that could also be due to the "3/4 behind" agle. Can someone confirm if this is a Spad XVI or a regular Spad XI?



Best regards,


Daniel
