As I understand it the lever currently labelled Mixture control in the BF109E3 was actually there to alter the timing purely to allow burning off the plugs (removing Oil fouling) and was only done on the ground. Once in flight Fuel injection did its thing. In short the 109E3 didnt have any mixture control.



I grew up understanding Max power and Speed was MAX BOOST and MAX RPM
