| X4387 Extract from E2/G8.10.21 X.4219. 8.10.21. X.4228 [Struck through] X4387 We are proceeding to design a pilot jet for the Goshawk(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine)) carburetter fitted with an automatic valve somewhat on the principle of the starting carburetter, of which you sent us a model. We are also designing a silencer for this carburetter to bolt on to the main jet and extra air intakes. The remainder of the control gear is in hand for the Goshawk(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine)). E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} | ||
