thanks, chaps!

does anyone know details of the Halberstadt CLIV brought down on August 23, 1918 (by AA fire)?

also when were the Hannover CL types first identified as such? i have Mannock and Compston credited with one in January 1918, but i am sure that McCudden's claim the following month was still being referred to as an "Albatros 2-seater". so who decided Mannock and co had knocked down a Hannover?
