There is actually a film about von Richtofen made in 1970
by the master of low budget, Roger Corman. Starring that
bloke with the wings from Barbarella whose name escapes me.
I`ve only seen it in German, but trust me, I dont think you`ve missed much dramatically speaking! Plenty of Fokkers and Camels in it though.
Im sure Herr Swarzzenegger was supposed to be doing a wartime flying movie a couple of years back called "With wings as Eagles" or something like that. Don`t know what happened to it, maybe it`ll show up some time soon.
Personally I would remake Battle of Britain with a coherent script.(And without Susannah York!)
