I thought it was more like 1.5 hours for the 109. How else did it get to England and have 20 minutes over the target and then still get back to Germany during the Battle of Britain. I may be wrong though, that is why I am throwing this out. If it is please correct me.
Easily since most, if not all the 109s, flew from French airfields during BoB.
