I'm pretty sure this article has its wires crossed. Richthofen did indeed command Jasta 11, though I don't think it was created to showcase him. The unit the article seems to be talking about is actually Jagdgeschwader 1 (JG-1), the Flying Circus, the unit Richthofen commanded after Jasta 11 (though I wouldn't be surprised to learn that Jasta 11 was one of the—IIRC—four jagdstaffeln united in JG-1). I'll fix it when I can pull together a couple of sources but invite anyone who can beat me to it to go ahead and do so. Binabik80 00:23, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

The most recent addition is incorrect; reinhart was commander of JG 1 ( of which jasta 11 was a part) Goering was made JG 1 commander, not jasta 11 commander- he came to JG 1 direct from Jasta 27. Harryurz 14:42, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
