So we have a 100 Octane denier here and there. To deny something against all the evidence is a human thing. It happens and we have to accept that. Someone who has committed a crime will often deny it, even though they know they are guilty. People even deny huge world events, despite the evidence, like the holocaust in WWII. I suppose that, sometimes, the denier might like the attention they can draw to themselves or they just have fun making mischief, or have a particular agenda. Anyway, I would like to leave the 100 Octane denier’s to one side for a moment, as they will not change their view even if taken back in a time machine. The point I would like to raise is why have the developers of CloD not included the Battle of Britain historically correct Spitfire and Hurricane to the 100 Octane modified specification? Was it a calculated decision and if so, why? Was it a genuine mistake? Was it just too hard to do? Do they intend not to provide a 100 Octane Hurricane in the BoM sequel so thought they would not bother with it in BoB? Does anyone have any thoughts on this? Perhaps if any developers are reading this they might care to respond? Is 100 Octane to be ignored? What a shame if it is ignored. I would not like to see aviation history and any other aircraft, red or blue, treated this way in a flight sim.
