As has been mentioned the form is titled CONSUMPTION.
If we follow your logic the 26,000 tons of 87 octane consumed wasn't consumed either, it was also at the airfields. So the next question would be, what were the RAF consuming ( sorry, would you prefer burning up, using, please tell us what term you would prefer)

It represents 3.74% of the aviation fuel from the stock yards, to the railheads, to the airfields for the first year of the war.

I would love to see you support that view. Following up this logic each month over this period a further 10,000 tons of 100 Octane and 26,000 tons of 87 octane weere also piling up at the airfields. Where did they put it all and more intrestingly what did they use in the aircraft?

Spend some time on an airfield....

I have spent a lot of time on airfields and the longer this goes on, I suspect that I have spent a lot more time than you on an airfield.

That is why placarding is not a choice or option. Any alternative fuels will be specifically listed by specification.

What exactly have this got to do with a chart showing the fuel consumed per month in the UK?
PS still waiting for you to say where you got the information re the full transfer of FC to 100 octane completing in May 1941.
If you do not support that statement can you give one good reason as to why we shouldn't ignore every other statement that you have made without support.
