He didn't say anything about keeping station, he describes going full throttle in anticipation of an engagement. Neither of us knows if they were in formation at that point or if they had broken up to pick their targets, because the quote you supplied doesn't mention anything about it.
As for the rest of your post, 11 minutes is a reasonable amount of time (even though exceeding the specified guidelines) and a far stretch from all day long WEP running.
Let me ask you one question just to eliminate any suspicion of bias and restore my willingness to be convinced that your arguments are about what you perceive to be historically accurate and not about gameplay advantages: if someone finds combat reports stating similar situations for 109s, will you be content to let DB601s run WEP in a similar fashion (ie, with the only constraint being fuel expense)?
