If Lothar vonRichthofen said that he shot down a Sopwith Triplane, then a Sopwith Triplane must have been lost. The German claims are ALWATS correct and the British ones are ALWAYS suspect, right? I suggest we try to discover who the RNAS criminal is who is covering up the loss of this aircraft in order to embarass a noble German aviator. Now, before you all dump on me, please see my point. BOTH sides made claims that can't be substantiated, and NEITHER side's records are perfect. There were a lot more important things going on in the various headquarters than the soothing of a company grade officer's ego.
