It seems to me that the historically available boost/overboost capabilities should be modelled for all aircraft whether their use in any particular circumstance was authorised or not. Any pilot having the need to save his backside would use whatever was available to him, authorised or not, and I can't see Dowding, Park, Molders, Galland or anyone else ripping into a pilot for damaging his engine to save his life.

CEM should be used to damage the engine if the prescribed time limits, or perhaps an increased % of the time limits like 125%, were exceeded as that is the only way we have of bringing some kind of limitation to its use and representing engine damage. CEM already does this to Merlin engines if max boost and rpm are maintained for too long although I haven't tested what those limits are.

When we have finally a reasonable scoring system online and a reasonable career mode I'd suggest that all pilots violating engine wear limits get penalties on online score and career progress offline.

That's actually a pretty interesting idea for online wars.

This might be a dumb question but has anyone asked the question of 100 octane availabiliy during BoB at the Imperial War Museum at Duxford?

Not according to Herr Kurfaust. And the "discussion" is about how common it was. If "a lot" or "most" squadrons used it then surely it should be in the game?

Really dont care Herr Kurfurst. He is known 109 fanboy and it is really hard to call him objective in such case regarding 109 vs Spit performance.

Im sure 100 Octan performance for british fighters should be implement in game.
