Curt Willi Jarant

[Atcham Tower]

This was the man who hit the news worldwide last week when his wife and daughter attempted to take his corpse in a wheelchair onto an easyJet aircraft. They claim that they had no idea he was dead when stopped by Liverpool Airport security before boarding the flight to Berlin. It seems that Herr Jarant, aged 91, had been a pilot who had flown "millions of miles". At that age, it is entirely possible that he had served in the Luftwaffe. It's a very long shot, I know, but can anyone produce any details of his career?
