So you throw the insults. I respond politely to calm you down and then you add another layer of
xxxxxxxx ?
Where is your mum that I made an urgent request for some (boosted) slap on your pinky butt ? That also I hev done and was rather good
Just to remind you after reading BlkDg post : btw 1940 and 1944 there was Four (4) years of harsh technological development. If they had such boosted Merlin, the MkII would hve been called a MkIX etc.. etc..
WHen dealing with history You need to put things in perspective or you end with acrobatic assumptions such as where we are now.
When dealing with a fleet of airplane at war you need to understand taht factory made does not mean fleet wide or you'll end to say that the F35 is actually in full service just because a couple have just been delivered to an instructor unit (both wings are still on guys
) .
And by the way I did alrdy put RR data on the forum. It does not say 17lb at all : 9 lb max op boost at rated alt. And it was in late 1940 early 41 (cant remember).
I would come back latter for the max boost and alt question but I think I (we) hve alrdy discuss this one alrdy. Just remind that that the boost (the supercharger) was not there for max low speed but for increasing the climb rate and maximizing the overall speed at
alt. As I hve alrdy said this is not a car tuning. You don't plug the biggest supercharger to get the max peak power.

PS: the FM of the spit is more of a concern for me
PSS : I am (wwe are) not historian(s). Instead of recreating evidences we shld stick to what are the data in the literature. There is enough to discuss on how any data cld impact the FM. Valec as alrdy post a realy good link to source out any perfs
