FW 189 and HS 126 books
 
Are there any books in English on the FW 189 and HS 126? I have read the squadron signal book on the FW 189 but, can't find anything else. I am looking for operatioal histories., losses ect. This is something Osprey might want to do one day. Something like Pegg's book on the HS 129 would also be good.

The best resource on the Fw 189 is in German:
  • "Focke-Wulf Nahaufklärer Fw 189 A 'Uhu', Schulflugzeug Fw 189 B 'Eule' und Schlachtflugzeug Fw 189 C: Entwicklung, Produktion und Einsatz" by Dabrowski, Stedinger Verlag, 2008, ISBN 978-3-927697-53-9, 264 pages
Emphasis is on the development and production history, less on the operational history. Excellent photographic content, several in color. No loss list, but includes a comprehensive list of aircraft types with Werknummern and Stammkennzeichen.
