The French were not very impressed by the Fokker performances (though they were interested by its synchronized armament) and german losses on french fronts were basically equivalent to french losses,
Even the Voisin losses / sortie was not very high (there was simply more sorties) and most of them were shot down by 2-seaters anyway
Absolutely, the majority of Fokker victories were scored by a handful of clearly very skilled pilots, but even these were dwindled down by attrition.....von Crailsheim, Eduard Böhme.....Immelmann. By early/mid 1916 it can't have been much fun getting entangled with aircraft 10/15mph faster than you...and with a much better rate of climb...no matter how skilled you were.
It's certainly a challenge flying Eindeckers, as I'm finding out
I agree with HarryH too, we could do with a few more two seaters on all sides to fill the sky up a bit.
