Dear editors, I believe that the term "revolt" ist over-emphasizing and misleading. It implicates the use of resistance, if not violence. According to Steinhoff, Lützow and Galland, this was not the case. It was, however, an uncredited verbal expression of critisism about the Luftwaffe high command. The critics have been in contact for many years and therefor Steinhoff places the term Verschwörung: conspiracy. The reaction of Göring and Hitler was rough, but nobody was sentenced officially.

I suggest to move the article to Fighter Pilots Conspiracy. Y Done

After war it became fashion amongst german military protagonists to point out their opposition the the german high command. Undoubtly there have been differences about how to win the war, but to oppose against the regime itself was a different story. Neither Galland nor Lützow nor Steinhoff can been seen as participants of a revolt against germans political leaders. They expressed their doubts about how to best kill the allies and were disciplined moderatly.
