Re: Bf 109 identity
Olivier,
I'm just saying that early DB 605AS engines with 1:8,3/8,5 compression ratio required initially C3 fuel regardless if there was MW50 (DB 605ASM) or not (designation unknown to me, probably still DB 605AS). That is why I wrote "these engines are sometimes called as the DB 605ASC" despite that designation came later. There are pictures of such planes and the point is that C3 triangle does not mean that there was MW50 in the plane.
Generally it's one thing what the specifications say and what was planned to produce but it's whole another thing what really came out of production lines or repairing centres.
