Although my experience is primarily with 262 pilots, it really was not unusual to see Einflieger making that many flights, or more, every day. Those guys really worked hard! I also noted a trend later in the war from Einflieger and ferry pilot Flugbuch, they started flying earlier in the day, and later in the day, to avoid the Allied fighters.
