The Camel was a real bugger to fly, but performed well. Apparently it could do a bloody fast right turn. It's also stated that amongst the allied aircrafts, pilots using the Sopwith Camel shot down the highest number of enemies.

Otherwise, the S.E.5a was a real treat according to some.

Yes, but more than 5000 Camels were built. It's kind of like the Grumman Hellcat in WW2: highest kill-to-loss ratio of any aircraft of the war, but then they built 7000 of them in just two years.
