BMW 803 4-Row Radial Prototype.....

As I'm sure we all know, for inexplicable reasons, FlightGlobal's 'temporary' suspension of their wonderful "FLIGHT" magazine archive now seems very much permanent many of us will be left with dead links to the interesting bits we're researching. This was my (now dead) link to the BMW 803 engine: https://www.flightglobal.com/pdfarchive/view/1945/1945 - 2393.html?search=BMW 803
All I want is the issue date in which this comprehensive descriptive article appeared and, as a bonus, the page numbers for the article would also be great. Does anyone have this information? Thanks in advance.

Hi Simon, Thanks, but it didn't report the '803. The article I had in mind was whole '803 development, not just a by-mention.

As far as I can see Simon was working from your link so do you have another link that he can try

Otherwise go to archive.org and search the waybackmachine pages for https://www.flightglobal.com/pdfarchive

BMW 803

C3 fuel is often listed as being in the 96-100 octane range. The 96-100 oct was lean response, as SR6 noted. Rich response was higher, easily above 120 PN ('performance number', or 'grade' sometimes), and improving in late war. So what was the 130/150 octane fuel called? There was no 130/150...
