I never disputed the fuels use, just the silly notion it was the only fuel available and the adopted service fuel.

Who would ever suggest they were still undergoing 100 Octane fuel testing in August of 1940 simply on the basis the facts do not align?



100 Octane is completely off topic. Start your own thread if you want to debate it.
These tests were on the 100 octane fuel produced in the UK as a back up in case the supplies from the USA were insufficient
