X.4273 - TEMPORARY STANDARDISATION OF 40/50 IGNITION COIL FOR GOSHAWK(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine)).

The ballast resistance to be used with the 40/50 ignition coil for the Goshawk(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine)), in accordance with recent temporary standardisation sheets, will be unaltered. That is to say, not being itself the subject of standardisation, this will be as previously standard for Goshawk(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine)), viz. containing 25" length of ballast wire.
