I have started a career with a phantom claim. Rejected. Obviously.

A little OT, and possibly well known by everyone but me, but the other day I fought an Alb D in my BIFF campaign. I claimed it as an Albatros D.V. When I later looked at the screenshots I'd taken--in the heat of battle, not while pausing the sim--I was shocked to see it was clearly and unmistakably an Albatros D.III. The claim was confirmed anyway. The cool thing is that in my logbook, it's listed as an Albatros D.V, although it 100% was a D.III. I think it's cool that things aren't so finite with the program that there is some real-world leeway and forgiveness for erroneous heat-of-battle identification. I claimed a D.V, had a witness, it was the only Alb shot down in the area, so I got the victory, and it was logged as I had claimed. You see that all the time in actual combat reports versus what was actually shot down.
