LOL, he we go again with the Pips paper while ignoring the number of squadron over and above the 16 +2 that used 100 octane fuel.

You continually fail to supply a breakdown of which RAF Commands received what fuel.

A single bomber in BC carried enough fuel to fuel an entire squadron of Spitfires or Hurricanes.
