Rudolf Hess, Von Griem The Hortens and Ernst Udet

[J Harris]

1) Given Hess's aviation / aeronautical background prior to the Second World War, has anyone any evidence as to the degree of friendship between the five men above?

2) Secondly, I have some evidence that Hess was friendly towards the Horten brothers who appear to have been operating out of Cologne and Gottingen at or around May 1941. Again, is there any further evidence as to the level of friendshio between the parties?

Many thanks.
