Default Updated RAF FMs in 1.07.18301

It is nice to see the new 100octane Spit I and Hurri.

But boost levels are a bit weird:

Spit Ia 100 octane: +9psi normal/+12 psi WEP (should be +6.25/+12psi)
Hurri 100 octane: +6.25psi normal/+12psi WEP (correct!)

Spit II (unchanged, always 100 oct): +6.25psi normal/+9 psi WEP (should be +9psi/+12psi**)

** there was some previous discussion whether +12psi was approved for BoB Spit IIs.

There doesn't seem to be much point doing detailed testing on FMs that B6 said would be changing further anyway. But basically, the new WEP speeds (at SL) for Spit I and Hurri seem roughly to bring them into line for the historical non-WEP speeds, which is of course a step in the right direction. It should be noted that assuming the 109s are unchanged in the patch, they are slow at SL as well (but not as much as the RAF, depending on whether you subscribe to Messerchmitt official specs or some variously problematic actual flight tests)

The CloD Spit II (+9psi) could always do 290mph at SL, the CloD Spit 1a (+12) can now do ~280mph at SL (from 260mph at +6.25psi) and the CloD Hurri (+12psi) can do 270mph at SL (from 240mph at +6.25psi).

Cheers, camber
