How Long Was The Battle of Britain Expected to Last?

Although I never read anything like that, everything was exaggerated at the time and rightfully so. Especially by pilots.

However, at the apex of the battle, certainly Dowding and upper leadership knew the RAF was just DAYS away from the RAF production rate losing the battle to the RAF attrition rate. The records were meticulously kept. DAYS! Luckily, erroneously and ironically beginning on Aug 15, 1940 the war expanded to retaliatory city attacks alleviating the pressure on radar, command centers and airfields.
