Frank, I posted the name of the book before, its one of Goebbels publications during the war which listed Philipp's as the author. The book was "Philipp - Der Jagdflieger Hans Philipp sein Leben seine Erfolge 1943". I also saw that there was an article in a German wartime paper "Der Adler" 20 Apr 1943. I found this also but have little info on this book so it might be just a "picture" book, Ritterkreuzträger Profile 11: Hans Philipp.

Johannes it seems that your right. So far I can't say that he is not an ace but is no were as good as his PR info. The western front put them in the real world from what I found so far.
