Possibly still living
Glad you brought that up- I never thought to check. A visit to http://www.das-ritterkreuz.de gives only a date of birth, and as they update with Todesdaten quite regularly, it appears he may indeed still be living. Born in Kiel on 1 August 1913, he would have just celebrated his 90th birthday.

However...
Michael,
First, let me congratule you for your great site. You have been doing a great job!
On the other hand, some other Luftwaffe aces passed away in the last months such as:
Gerhard Schöpfel (RK - 45 victories - JG 26), died on 15.05.2003, at age of 91.
Walter Ohlrogge (RK - 77 victories - JG 3 et al.), died on 30.04.2003, at age of 94.
Günther Schack (EL - 174 victories - JG 51 & JG 3), died on 14.06.2003, at age of 85.
Wolf-Dietrich Huy (EL - 40 victories - JG 77) died on 13.07.2003, at age of 85.
Hansgoerg Bätcher (EL - KG 4), died on 23.04.2003, at age of 89.
Sad but true.
Wishes,
Douglas.

Walter Schuck
Hi AHLF,
As far as I know, Walter Schuck is alive and well, living in Germany. There are three aces with more than 200 victories alive today: Schuck (206 victories), Erich Rudorfer (224) and Gunther Rall (275).
Regards,
Douglas.
BTW: thanks for the Antrupp´s picture!

Mark this- I have photos of 99% of the Luftwaffe KC holders.
Naturally, Sattler is amongst them, though his photo kinda blurred.
Will scan it for ya.
