The mot ridiculous at this game were arguabily the french with their twin engined single cranckshaft 2000hp marvel that history has shown how irealistic this formula was (the very 1st french act of sabotage of the German war machine ?)
they also explain the line after that Maximum means maximum theoritical power !!!
It's a record breaker plane ! No reception flight, training, long formation flight etc... You can't draw a comparaison... C'mon tell me you are jocking !

This is just another example of TC trying to side track answers to his own question because he can't win. It doesn't matter what the purpose of the engine/aircraft demonstrations were, we were answering TCs statement:-
"More over I hve a thousand times explained and showed that there is no sense to believe that 100 octane will provide a tremendous augmentation of pow in an eng that was not specifically built for that fuel."
The posts that followed show that tremendous increase in power was possible - read the posts and references - and NZt's posts and references show that the engine was demonstrated to be strong enough to deliver the increased power.
We have arrived at Trolling and I've had enough of this thread.
