Not quite, here are some reports you've missed: Donaldson 151Sqdn-18May40.pdf

Dutton 145 Sqn 1July40.pdf

There were several other colloquial expressions used to describe using +12 lbs boost, all with the same meaning, regardless of what Crumpp might think. And wouldn't ya know it, these squadrons are not on pstyle's list...

Even if Crump is wrong at all some here is has no more than "ad hominem" behaviour. Some of them act in similar ways in another threads, trying to negate the fact presented, creating arguments, digging others, misleading some and given their own deturpated interpretation even when the data were against their favourite a/c.

All this turned on a childish fight where wins who gives the last word even if wrong word in an vicious looping.

All us have some bias however we have to try clear our minds. My suggestion is that you put your arguments and give a time. Everyone put the arguments over the table and let the readers decide. Stop trying to counter any time. Please, this is for all.

You claim being scientific and rational, but nothing here is in this way at all.
