Original Note:
Hess did not fly to Britain in an attempt to prevent WW2 as the war started in September 1939, more than 1.5 years before he took off from Germany on 10.5.1941 - a date he chose with his astrologist. He did not crash land - he parachuted out after running low on fuel. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/will-we-ever-know-why-nazi-leader-rudolf-hess-flew-scotland-middle-world-war-ii-180959040/
