Yes.. I made a mistake during flying and forgot to enable the boost.. So in essance this test is limited to +6 boost.. So Ill have to re-do this test.

One thing to note, the speed matches that of the 87oct Spitfire Mk.1a, expect at higher altitudes. Two 'see' what I am talking about, goto my website and plot the Spitfire Mk.Ia vs. the Spitfire Mk.Ia 100 oct.

That being a pilots's 'perception' of what is going on can be very different from what is 'actually' going on.
