Re: Fw 58 book - Badges identification/correction
Hello Sergio, thank you very much for taking care so much of our good old "Weihe" FW58. For me and thousands other young flyers In Germany the "Weihe" was the first 2-eng-plane we flew after the singles at "A/B Schule. As you know the FW 58, Ju 52, Ju 86 and FW 200 have been built for civilian purpose and got weapons later on in the war. The FW 58 was easy to fly like a glider, we called the ship the "plastic-bomber". In the East we nightfighters used the FW 58 against the slow flying russian bombers. Only trouble: the plastic burnt very easy! Good luck for your book! Regards to Rio Peter Spoden
