I don't think it has anything to do with the columns above it. Can you prove it does not?
Crumpp, Crumpp Crumpp, kindly explain how it is that 52,000 tons of 100 Octane fuel was consumed between July 1940 and October 1940 if, as you claim, only 16 Squadrons were using 100 Octane - so far you have made a lot of fuss regarding fuel shortages etc but you have not explained where 52,000 tons of it went.

Only 15,000 tons was needed to complete all defensive sorties flown by Merlin engined fighters - so again please explain to everyone what happened to 35,000 tons of 100 octane fuel?

I want documentation from you to prove your case, not conjecture.

Prove that there were frontline Merlin engined squadrons using 87 Octane fuel during the battle - I mean combat reports, squadron ORBs and other such documentation - evidence NOT your conjecture.

And so do your "June 1940" pilot's notes which you claim embody A.P. 1590B/J.2-W, but, conveniently, haven't shown. I want to see the front cover, inner cover and the relevant fly leaf which has the date.

Then why haven't you shown the relevant pages in the first place, including A.P. 1590B/J.2-W? - better still show us the relevant pages, listed above, including the date of publication.
