Hi, Well I know that the most famous German pilot, Genaral Adolph Galland that crashed but he didn't died in argentina. Actually he crashed and survived many times. What he did in Argentina was help Juan Peron to build up and train his air force. Galland liked the stay in Argentina ; but returned to Germany in 1955. He kept fying and fighthing and before he died ; he had 104 Victories. He died at the age of 83 in 1996. I hope this helps somehow... Good Luck!
