There was only 16 squadrons of RAF fighters that used 100 octane during the BoB.
The Fw190A could not fly with the outer cannon removed.
There was no Fw190A-8s flying with the JGs in 1945.

Actually Mickey Mouse was created on May 15th 1928, not November 18th 1928 with Steamboat Willie.

Here's Mickey Mouse's first cartoon and debut which none of the studios wanted to distribute due to negative audience reaction after a public test screening.

Then a second cartoon was produced in August 1928 which also failed to impress the studios to get distribution.

It was only after 2 failures that Steamboat Willie was made.

One of Mickey Mouse's biggest fans,
