Re: Fw 58 Questions

The information came from a main data plate for a Fw 58 built by MWG, in Györ, Hungary. The plate is a typical Focke Wulf style but the text is Hungarian, not German.

Here's how the model entry line (die-stamped) reads: "F.W.58.K.A6." All the letters are capitalized since that's how the common die tools were made. The build year entry line reads "1943".

I hope to be able to share a photo sometime later.

Thank you for the helpful replies.
