Hey, I'm confident that Crumpp will trumpp everyone with extensive documentation, proving beyond doubt that the RAF kept all of its 100 Octane fuel in strategic reserve while only allowing 16 squadrons to use maybe 74,000 tons to cover intensive operational trials - in which only some squadrons would use the fuel full time - in order to convince the RAF that the fuel worked in Merlin engines rated for 400hp. Its gonna happen. Have faith.
