I would suggest very strongly that the RFC gained dominance over the Ypres salient July - Nov 17.
As to March 18 - the Germans had as many aircraft as the British but were simply not flexible enough to make the big effort - leaving ground attacks to the Schlatas - they should have taken a leaf out of the British book and made an all out effort when it was needed - bombed up those pretty little Triplanes. Albatros & Pfalz and flung them at the British troops in the rear areas - particularly on 25 Mar when there was much confusion congestion and even panic.
Cheers Russ
