Glider, it is even less HP than that. Morgan and Shacklady in Spitfire: The History gives 990 hp for early Merlin engines. So that would be 330hp according to Eugene's generalization.

Eugene is a little short on specifics, isn't he? But that is understandable when a document shows a times 2.5 increase in hp over what he claims at a lower boost level. Until he comes up with specifics, it is only so much smelly shovel from him.

So squadron log books and pilot reports are garbage. Sure.

Quite dodging the question. What are the squadron numbers for those 16 squadrons.
