1940 is nothing to do with operational trials. If you can find anything to support that then please post it. 1940 is about using it in action
Again this is rubbish. Using 10,000 tons a month there was more than enough fo Fighter Command and at that rate they had a 2 1/2 year stockpile. Put it another way, do you know any country that had a 2 1/2 year stockpile, of anything.
I am afraid that you continue to put forward nothing more than conspiracy theorys.

Do you think Crumpp needs to be reminded that Hurricane and Spitfire squadrons of Fighter Command had converted to 100 Octane fuel in February 1940, and several Hurricane squadrons used it operationally during the Battle of France, May 1940? I mean it makes his whole theory about operational trials by 16 selected squadrons throughout the Battle of Britain look a little silly
and I'm sorry, I know it's jolly inconvenient for Crumpp, who's built up a resistance to evidence, but sometimes the plain, unvarnished facts have a bad habit of getting in the way of a comfortable delusion.
