Josef Carl Peter Jacobs

Shame there isn't a book on Jacobs. He really is a fascinating character and had a very eventful and varied flying career, starting way back in 1915 and going all the way through to war's end. He did it all.

As interesting is his post war experiences, especially his repulsion of the Nazi's, Goering and his escape to Holland to avoid being dragged into the mess that was the Third Reich. So unlike many of his contempories.

Woohoo! That's very good news. Is it possible to elaborate?
