Two additional items of modification to the scenario. First, I dropped SSR
2 for the fixed map as I don't real1ly see the need provided that the
Re.2001's either stay engaged or disengage. If an Re.2001 tries to remain
away from the fight but does not disengage then I may decide that the
aircraft is disengaged and remove it awarding 5 VP to the RAF.
Second, When I revised this scenario looking up the encounter in my copy of
"Malta the Spitfire Year" it gave the serial numbers (BP860 & BR311) of the
two Spitfires involved. Checking these against the production list of
serial numbers shows that both Spitfires had M46 rather than M45 engines.
The M46 was optimized for higher altitudes and had a bigger supercharger
impeller that provided it with more HP had altitude. The downside is that
the bigger impeller lowered the HP at low altitude. This means less power
and lower top speed at the altitudes this encounter takes place. It gives
the Spitfires a little less advantage than they would have with an M45
engine.
