Today I heard an interview with William R. Crooks,108-year old american pilot.Another WW1 pilot still alive is canadian Henry Botterell, aged 103 years. Are there any other survivers you know?

I can tell you that as of late march of this year, out of almost four million who put on the US uniform between 1917 and 1919, there are some 800 left. Best guess that anyone has cared to make so far is that by late next year, they will ALL be gone....
