I don't have a link Glider. These are not posted on some website but part of my collection. I scan the pages and post them.

The notes you quote do not seem to tie up to what is know about the updated version of the Spitfire in use during the BOB.

Exactly. Quite a large "Fly in the Ointment" for silly claims like:
Quote:
before the BoB started, ~30 squadrons of Spitfires and Hurricanes are known to have been converted to 12 lb boost. These squadrons would be those that would most likely come in contact with the Luftwaffe.

Quote:
100 octane was the predominant fuel used by Fighter Command.

And depending on the dates you pick for the battle to be over:
Quote:
by the end of the BoB, Fighter Command had converted to 12lb boost.
