FW 189 and HS 126 books

[James A Pratt III]

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.

I know that Mushroom have book about the Hs 126 but I have never see it.

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.
