With all those aeroplanes present maybe another pilot did get Voss. Rhys-Davids probably was given the victory because he was from the upper classes. The British establishment hated working people in those days (in many ways it still does despise them). That is why Ball was a national hero by 1917 but Mannock never got mentioned in the British newspapers until after the war was over. Pretty-boy Rhys-Davids got the credit, whether he deserved it or not.
