Kurfurst still won't give up his propaganda campaign. After being banned is editing Wikipedia articles without asking and trying to sneak it under admins noses by IP address
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special...s/86.101.5.223 Just how many pro-Germany WW2 100 octane aircraft loons are there in Budapest these days? http://whatismyipaddress.com/ip/86.101.5.223#Comments |

As far as I am aware little if any. 100 Octane was stored in underground tanks that were well camouflaged and away from ports and other obvious choke points.

According to the Official War History book Oil by D.J Payton-Smith "Losses of stocks were almost negligible; only about 7 per cent of naval stocks and 3 per cent of civil stocks were lost in Britain by enemy action between July 1940 and June 1941. The Army and Royal Air Force lost no stocks at all." p. 137.
Unfortunately for Barbi and Crumpp it still leaves 35,816 tons of 100 Octane fuel available for "other" purposes, apart from FC frontline duties, including supplying FC with all their requirements for transfer flights, training etc, plus supplying engine manufacturers, MUs, repair depots, carrier pigeons, fighter-pigeons and bomber-pigeons etc. It also meant that Blenheims of BC and Coastal Command were able to fly frontline operations.

You think that they wouldn't use any of it in wartime, but store it up?

Actually the 35,816 tons of 100 Octane consumed was used to cook sausages and eggs and and toast lots of Crumppets.
(He used exactly the same arguments against the RAF using 100/150 grade fuel - Crumpp, who doesn't know the differences between fuel reserves, fuel issued and fuel consumed, likes to believe that the RAF specialised in storing fuel reserves of high grade aviation fuel like squirrels and never using the stuff, unlike the generous Germans who used high octane fuel like it was water.) ![]() Last edited by NZtyphoon; 03-28-2012 at 12:56 AM. |

But be carful what you say 'here' because Kurfurst might use your quote at 'wiki' as source of proof as to why 100 octane was not aval for Spits and Hurris ![]()
