 Okay, I have another *hopefully* good question, so I will present what I believe is the correct answer.

The "Halberstadt D.II" was flown by the "Red Baron" between 11.March.1917 and 25.March.1917.

are you sure it isn't the Halberstadt D.II ?

I couldof swore that the plane

he did shoot down 6 planes before his Albatros D.III was fixed from a crash

and it was about 2 weeks

He flew the Albatross D.V for only a short period before switching to the Halberstadt. The wing of the early D.V's had a structural problem and he didn't go back to it.
