Battle of Britain Poor RAF A/C Performance

Hi Neil:

No worries - thought of you immediately I'd read the relevant section.

The thesis itself is in pdf format here (link to download it is at the bottom of the page - 3.5 megs):

http://setis.library.usyd.edu.au/adt/public_html/adt-NU/public/adt-NU20050104.114402/

Fuel-related stuff towards the end, page 345 in the text numbering, 356 in the Adobe file. Do a ctrl+f to find references to BP House itself. Note he also makes reference to BP Amoco archives held at the University of Warwick.

All in all, that section in particular is a good read.

... missions were to be met by the commitment of alerted swarms of fighters, composed of Me 109's and Fw 190's, that were strategically based to protect industrial installations. The inferior capabilities of these fighters against the Mosquitoes made this a hopeless and uneconomical effort. 1.JD KTB
