Well unfortunately for you it was you who have argued that there were absolutely no Spitfires and Hurricanes flying with 87 octane fuel, they should not be in the sim, as you have claimed that the only ones ever flying were all 100 octane ones.

You wanted to enforce this fantasy on all others, and wanted that 1C should only model RAF fighters on 100 octane, and deprieve all others to have choice wheter to believe your fantasies or not.

The rest of us were deeply sceptical of your story. We've believed, and still believe of course that both RAF fighters were fueled by both 87 octane and 100 octane, depending on the station, and this was supported by massive evidence.

In the end, most of the 1C community and 1C developers took the more sensible, more realistic position that was well supported by the actual documentation and uniformly shared by respected authors.

They've acknowledged that the evidence for your story was unconvincing and insufficient, and I am sure after careful inspection of the available documents come to the same conclusion as the rest of us, that both 87 and 100 octane models were present in the Battle. They have ignored your revisionist version of history. Accordinly, and true to the historical reality, they have modelled both versions, which every ones of us, expect you and a handful of fanatics, has supported all the way along.


Twitch all you want about it, but you have lost and failed in your agenda.
