Hmmmm.... The question devolves, I'd think, around who flew Triplanes
the longest; unless the answer is Voss ('The Magnificent'), who scored
brilliantly and rapidly on the type (without checking, I'm guessing half his
score is on his Dr.I).
Aside from him, Lowenhardt (ugghh, how'd you spell his name) flew a Dr.I
extensively. So did Udet. And Lothar v.R. Hmmm.... Being that this is
probably a trick question, I'd say there are two probabilities:
-Lothar von Richthofen
-Voss

My guess? Werner Voss. Erik
