Interesting bit about fuels in aircraft.
British pilots did see a marked difference in performance of their aircraft when using the American fuel over the British. The Germans didn't know this so when they flew captured Hurricanes or Spitfires, they used thier own fuels and had false power readings...they thought our aircraft was slower than they actually were. Boring, but true. Nitrous could only be used in short bursts and usually when running!!!German engine development never matched what was needed and so nitro was a cheap fix. |
from ww2, britains leading secret agent was a chap called wing commander Yeo Thomas...The White Rabbit.
