The US captured a KI 84 and was tested with us fuel and was markedly faster than with japanese fuel. Hence better fuel better performance.
Now Crump had stated that FW that was captured and tested ran worst  with allied fuel than the fuel that LW. Now I cant understand this.

I am no aircraft mech but i have many years as a hobbyist auto mech. If i was told that the test fuel was of higher octane i would have made changes in timing carb setting and plugs and a few other settings.
My point being I think that the USAAF would have a more knowledgeable tech than me.  So why was engine performance worst , because the KI 84 performed much better.

Something is not quite rite.
if anybody has an answer please post.

Germans used synthetic fuels... allies didn't. The German engines were designed with synthetic fuel in mind.

And is synthetic fuel better? Or worse?

Hitech does have the right to renew which ever lease he wants or reject those he deems to be too much trouble.  I say it was an unwise move because it appears to be a decision based on pettiness and emotion but it's his right to do so.


You know what? Crumpp was a griefer, and now, IMHO, you are too.

Dude, I am so tame now compared to when I started running scenarios and had to get people sorted out before take-off solely through the power of vitriol. It was like herding gerbils with napalm.

I am not a researcher, and dont have an engineering background. The calculations were beyind my ken, but....

Crummp was always sure he was right. When other engineers challenged him, he argued alone (is he REALLY the only engineer who can see the truth???) or changed the subject.

Crumpp was quick to point out the mistakes others made, but I dont recall him ever stepping up to say "I screwed that up...sorry." edit: in fairness, I didnt track the BBS looking for his posts tho...

Crumpp had an agenda -- he posted against US plane modeling, and for LW (esp 190).

Crummp did not have a graceful demeanor online, and did not show respect for others and their input.

Any one of these is common enough around here, but combining all four went a  long way towards neutralizing any positive contribution. I honestly wonder how different his reception -- and his resulting frustration -- might have been if he treaded with respect.


I'm unaware of Crumpp ever actually countering a logical argument or acknowledging another point of view supported with facts. I'm certainly not qualified to comment on the AH modeling however I do know that the 190 would stall at over 300mph under certain conditions and that the luftwaffe forbade lower level combat {when possible}at one point due to pilot losses due to accelerated stalls. The 190 was purposely and inherrently unstable by design....it wasnt intended as a "dogfighter". German doctrine going all the way back to WW1 was very much "shoot & scoot"....so the british evolved the "turn fighters" and the germans the "energy fighters"....both sides designing planes to fit the doctrine.

Saying a 190 vs a spit is an even matchup doesnt mean the planes are similiar in specific performance....simply that in the hands of a good pilot the qualities even out. I always felt crumpps "data" was incomplete and biased....based on comments from other engineers here I also felt his grasp on engineering principles was a bit suspect as well:)

In my frequent interviews with 190 pilots, I found 9 out of 10 think Crump should be banned.

Furious' first comment was dead on.

Regarding the logical arguments; The issues (say technical or aerodynamic) discused here are often quite complicated. Therefore it is difficult to recognise unlogical argument without some knowledge.

We lost Crumpp, and another frequent poster on the aircraft and vehicles sector, - Izzy.

Holy smoke Batman, A BAIT?!?  Gotta be, so much BS in two sentences. :rofl

"It's been peaceful lately......makes one wonder."

What does it make you wonder Angus? I'm curious. ;)

No comprendo Charge?
It makes me wonder if those two were the source for so much discussions to go up in flames and whether their removal has changed the atmosphere on this BB.
