Right you are: Dallas had 6 victories in 1916: 5 OOCs and one destroyed. He flew Nieuports and the prototype Sop Tripe (N500) alternately.
Libby had 10 victories as an FE-2 gunner between July and October (9 OOC, 1 dest) but I confess my pilot bias in that when I think "ace" I instinctively think FIGHTER ace. Gunner/observer aces are, to coin a phrase, "separate but equal!"
