Ernst-Wilhelm Modrow

"In April 1942, for one year, Modrow was posted to the Mediterranean theater of operations, flying more than 100 transport missions with the Blohm & Voss BV 222 flying boat with the Lufttransportstaffel (See) 222 (LTS (See) 222—222nd Air Transport Squadron Sea)."

Modrow was later the premier fighter ace flying the He219, but did he actually complete this number of missions in the Bv222?

RK books says 259 Feindfüge of which 109 were as a night fighter. He also flew the Do 26 operationally with the Tranzoceanstaffel
