METHOD
CONSTANT SPEED TYPES
Climb on Schedule, Rad Full Open +6.25Lbs Boost/2800RPM Mixture AUTO RICH (Back) In Spit IIA I used +9Lbs Boost/2800RPM. Temps and pressures all within limits throughout climb. Climb from 6500Ft to 12,000Ft
2 PITCH AIRCRAFT
Climbed +6.25 Lbs Boost/Coarse (about 2400RPM) Rad Full open, Mixture AUTO RICH (back) on schedule. Then Repeated the test at 6.25Lbs Boost/Full Fine (about 3000RPM). Again Climb from 6500ft to 12,000ft. All Temps and Pressures within limits.
Only aircraft with an issue was Spit MKI A 100 oct its symptoms are:
Climbing at +6/2800RPM passing 9500ft I get a couple of audible "put" "put" from the engine, passing 10,500ft I get very rough engine running. Reducing Boost to +5 and it smooths out. It also smooths out if I maintain +6Lbs boost but reduce RPM to 2600. Either way this shouldn't be happening.

I tried to test the Spitfire MkIa/100 octane for max speed at altitudes but at the first spot check for higher altitudes (10k and 20k) I was unable to achieve any kind of speed at 3000rpm/6.25lbs (or with BCO off at 10k) due to rough running. They were ok at 1k and 2k.
I didn't waste any more time on this as I saw these other posts. All Merlin Engine aircraft should be investigated, tested by the devs and fixed. There's no point in throwing reams of data at them just now, its meaningless.
