Thanks in advandce

Leo Schumacher of course went on to an interesting career with Heinz Baer and then JV 44. AFAIK he was still alive about ten years ago.

Obviously you didn't really pay attention to the comments made with your previous request. I understand that you're interested in this stuff, but please, to ask someone here to look up the fates of 81+ pilots for you is a bit much don't you think? I'm sure that with a few hours work I could find many of those names in my database - but why should I? Those few hours could be better used continuing my own research. Like a lot of other people here my time for following my own interest is limited - I do have a job, chores, family, etc. Please take Chris' suggestions and follow the sources that he and others mentioned. If you can't afford to purchase the books mentioned, there is always inter-library loan or other methods to pursue your search. I'm not trying to belittle your request or interest, but please realize that the scope of what you are requesting is an enormous task.

I sometimes wonder about the 'instant gratification' of the internet. Patience and actual research doesn't seem to matter anymore. Please realize that the information for the published works of guys like Chris Goss, John Vasco and numerous others has taken them 20-30+ years to accumulate. One more thing, add the works of Chris Shores to your search list.
