WW1 German pilot autobiographies

Just about to look for my next read. British WW1 pilots are well represented by autobiographies such as “Sagittarius Rising”, “Wind in the Wires”, “Flying Fury” etc. However I’ve never seen similar from a German perspective.

Any thoughts or recommendations?

Someone lent me “Early German Aces of World War I ” a few years ago and it was a good read. Not sure if it’s still in print.
