It's complicated. After his solo flight across the Atlantic he was a great hero in Germany, which had its own appreciation for air aces. (Too much -- in view of the future role of Hermann Goering). Germany still admired him after Hitler took over. He still got wined, dined, and lauded -- so he was blind to what was going on in Germany.
