Tempest V question

[Talisman]

Hi Folks,

 

Do you think we will ever get the option of 150 octane grade fuel for the Hawker Tempest V?  It would appear to be an oddity that we don't get this option at the moment.

 

Thoughts?

 

Happy landings,

We already have the increased boost for the Tempest of +11psi

150 grade fuel was not required for increased boost on the Tempest in the end. The Sabre IIA could be run on +11lbs with high octane fuel and the Sabre IIB without, but both options are represented adequately by our mod in game.

I thought that 13 lbs boost and 3,850 rpm was allowed late on and presumed that was with 150 Octane.

I'd have to check my notes but I think that was a rare thing and then only on Tempests with the Sabre IIB engine and the new Rotol propeller.

 

As a massive Tempest/Typhoon fan, anything to add to the Tempest is going to be of interest to me. It would require the devs to have some data on that particular modification including the propeller.
