As I have said before I don't know why he said certain, but I do know that the first paper was clear and that the request was without limitation.

Without a doubt the RAF wanted 100 grade fuel without limitation.
The intention is certainly there to switch to 100 grade.
That does not mean it was possible in the time frame given. I read the first meeting declares the intention.
The first paper also states that FC is still not sure of technical requirements to make the switch and therefore has not even begun to operate any aircraft with the fuel.
I don't think they are not just going to switch the entire force in the midst of a fight for survival over without first making an operational test to ensure the fuel is suitable.
The second meeting authorizes the change for certain units. That is a fact. I don't believe that it was misspoken by the author.
