Fw200 bomber missions in Russia

In Morzik's AFHRA-study on the Transporters, an interesting episode can be found:
For the Stalingrad air-bridge, a KGr.z.B.V. was created with Fw200 (from 2 Staffeln of KG40 IIRC). From 13.2.-28.2.43, that Gruppe was used for transports to and from the Kuban-Brückenkopf. Mostly, planes flew in formations of three. But during most nights, single planes flew nuisance raids to Baku or Grozny, targets was the oil-industry there.
