I would like to know definitely whether the timing scheme which was instructed experimentally from DES.669 is satisfactory and workable, and is therefore to be incorporated on the above engines. It is important that we should have this point settled quickly as instructions have been held up pending a decision. HS {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} BY. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} By We have not received any Instructions for this Timing Arrangement understand it is Held up by D.O owing to some fault in design ByL | ||
