Ok fair enough for the fighters. But with so many RAAF personnel flying Hurries and SPits in ENgland, any 100 oct probable requirement would hve been listed.

What import most in the doc is that 100 OCT was a safety measure to prevent any lack of required grade fuel during the forseen switch in engine fuel with increased "technologies" (and even more lowered safety level )

I pointed out (or I shld hve - lol ) a paper listing the composition of all grade of blended fuel (11.5% for 87 for exemple).

This shld be put in perspective with the average quantities of 100 oct consumption in england (the Kurves Kurfust traced).


ANd plse for the sake of the reader don't over quote each other with hundreds of lines of citations only to add a single sentence.
