Re: Hitlers Fw-200
Hitler had several Fw 200s during the course of the war. Most famous is a Fw 200 V3 (A-0) called Immelmann III (D-2600, later WL-2600 and 26+00). WerkeNr = 3099.
Another machine used by Hitler is Fw 200 C-4/U1 with registration CE+IB which wore full east front winter Luftwaffe markings. I'd have to look up the WerkeNr. if it's known at all. "Grenzmark" was a Führer escort aircraft with WerkeNr. 3098. It crashed on 23 Dec. 1941 in the Soviet Union. More here (in German): http://www.flugzeugforum.de/forum/showthread.php?t=6637

Re: Hitlers Fw-200
Hi!
Thanks for the Infos so far. Does anybody which Fw-200 was used by Hitler during his visit at Heeresgruppe Mitte (Smolensk) in March 1943 (13th March 1943)? edit: I believe this, but not sure. Fw 200 A09; WNr. 3099

Re: Hitlers Fw-200
That would probably be CE+IB, but that's more my guess than anything else. CE+IB was painted in full easfront winter livery at some point.
Issue #8 of Luftfahrt International has an article on this machine and the other Fw 200s used by Hitler. You might want to try and find it on Ebay.de. It has a number of nice photos and drawings.

Re: Hitlers Fw-200
According to Nowarra's book CE+IB had the Werk-Nr. 0137 (second picture). The same book says that TK+CV, Werk-Nr 0240, was used by Hitler to visit the Ostfront in 1943.

Re: Hitlers Fw-200
You might want to check Hitler's Squadron by Sweeting, published by Brassy's in 2002. It does not have a detailed WNr listing of the Fw 200 a/c but has lots of text and photos.
