Does anyone know where I can locate living WWII Luftwaffe pilots? Are there associations or something? I won't be able to travel to Germany, unfortunately, but I would write or call. Thanks.

This is the web site of the Gemeinschaft der Jagdflieger in Germany. Maybe a good place to start.

If you need the contacts for a book (or something like that) your planning to write, it's also smart to ask some members on this board who have experience in establishing contacts with LW veterans. Don't just go writing to some name with an address unless you're absolutely sure it is appreciated.

Just some word of advice.
