It depends on what timeframe you are looking at.
With all due respect, the thing being modelled is the equipment, not the time period. If the IIa that was cleared for 9 lbs continuous is the same basic piece of equipment that was used in 1940, then we should have it.

If you want to model the orders from FC, then convince the various RAF squadrons to impose 6.25 lbs continuous on their pilots.

Otherwise, you should also be campaigning for the reduction in the 109 fuel tank to help simulate the time spent in France before heading over the channel and reducing fuel load, or whatever other things.

Simulate the tools, let us play with them as we see appropriate.
