Crumpp Interesting find, can I ask if you can show the page where it mentins the fuel to be used?
If it doesn't then it would be refering to the early war 87 octane as that was the only fuel available. The date of the Pilots Notes is not a definitive statement as was proved by Kurfursts version of the Mk II pilots notes which had an incorrect date.
Other clues would be the instructions re the prop normally around the mid 20's section and the fitting of armour plate for pilots protection normally around item 40.
Look forward to seeing the above.
PS How are you getting on re the proving of 16 squadrons?
