X.2117 PETROL PUMPS. X.3386. Please note Mr. Lappin writes as follows:- "Re above development is certain to push along the lines of an engine driven pump, probably the Briggs pump or R.A.E. Swash plate pump both of which would run at about camshaft speed. Kindly let me know your attitude should it be desired to fit either of these pumps to Eagle(Aero Engine) or Falcon(Aero Engine) in Service and if you have any particular ideas in this matter". We shall be glad if you will please let us have remarks you may have to make on this question. RECEIVED JUN 4 EFC {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} EP. {G.
