Without this calculation the charts you posted are of little value

Problem is we don't have any good data on the 100 Octane.

The only data we have does not match our engine curves. Find some good data and I will be happy to do the calculations.

Takes but a second to change the values.

It just does not do it under all conditions or speeds. That is important, Glider.
That is how airplanes work, Glider.

It is not going to outperform the Bf-109 without changing the physics. The Spitfire has to be faster and have more excess thrust.

It is going to be very tough for the heavier Spitfire to overcome the weight differences when the Bf-109 maintains power parity.

It is that simple.

What exactly would be your definition of good data?
