How about some documentation supporting your claims?
What I said is what I see in all the documentation posted in this thread.


It is a fact the RAF did not complete conversion to 100 Octane until around January 1940. That is evident in the Operating Notes.

Yeah of course it is. It's like buying a DVD player isn't it. You get your instruction manual as part of the package and it does what it says in the instructions.

Meaning what you want to see in all the documentation posted;

but you have completely neglected answering some key questions such as how your "16 Squadrons" got through 52,000 tons of 100 Octane in just a few months of operational trials. Can you explain this at all, with supporting evidence?

The rest of your hypothesis is still just unsupported speculation.

No, there is no hypothesis. Anyone who knows how aviation handbooks work by convention will say the same thing.

Can you not see a genuine problem in telling some of your frontline pilots it was okay to use 100 Octane plus 12 lbs boost in an emergency, while telling the majority "sorry chaps, can't use it, tough luck?"
Obviously, you have never been in the Military. It happens every time a new piece of equipment is introduced.

Once again, please explain how 16 squadrons got through over 50,000 tons of aviation fuel in just a few months of "operational trials". documentation, not your speculation.

Please show us that the RAF was only interested in "Operational Trials" at a time when the country was facing full scale air assault - documentation, not your speculation.
