Good grief, no. If you saw the movie, you might think the German air force was entirely composed of red triplanes. In fact, only 320 of the Fokker Dr.1s were built. Even the German Jastas (squadrons) who had Dr.1s relied primarily on other aircraft. And there was only one all-red Triplane, which belonged to Manfred von Richthofen.

The Americans are flying Nieuport 17s, a French design which had been replaced before the Dr.1 entered service.

There are also inaccuracies (with anti-aircraft artillery and machine guns, for example) and a healthy number of plot absurdities.

Yes. Flyboys was based on a true story. It's one of the greatest ww1 movies and it's not really a Hollywood movie. If you've ever seen the movie you'll know.
