Interesting. Looking at the Wikipedia entry for the Triplane it appears Dallas had the first prototype, which was sent over for trials at the front. If I am reading the Wikipedia info correctly, the next Triplane did not arrive until around December, so am I correct that there should be one lone Triplane at the front until then?
