IIRC, there were a few sheets of original Fw 300 blueprints in an oversize drawer at the research archives of the AFM- Wright-Patterson.

Best Regards,

Good luck gettign there now. Tnhe archive at the USAFM were moved out of the museum and onto the base a few years back. Takes a virtual act fo Congress for a non-military researcher to get there now.

A similar process is happening with the museum library at Rockcliffe. A few years ago, it was easy for me to access books about my ancestors - who flew with the RCAF - but not that they are moving the library, research will be increasingly difficult.
