Looking at the stats, it seems fairly ordinary for late
WWI fighters, but it's always described as dominating the skys

It's performance was at least adequate in all areas and it was sturdy and
reliable, but mainly it had no nasty vices, which meant that the typical
inexperienced pilot could get in it, not kill themselves, and be effective in a
reasonable period of time. Very different from, say, a Camel.
