X.8796 - Standard Watford Magnetos.

I confirm mine Wd {Mr Wood / Mr Whitehead} 7/NJ/13.4.26.

On Wednesday next, 16th inst. Mr.North is coming here and will bring with him Mr.Allen, who wishes to discuss with EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} some questions arising out of the report made by him on the subject of long cams for the EO.6 magneto.

I think this may be a favourable opportunity to also discuss with Mr.Allen the question of the make-and-break cover mechanism becoming stiff when magnetos are warmed up.

Wd. {Mr Wood / Mr Whitehead}
