GOSHAWK(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine)) - DYNAMO BRUSHES. Referring to By14/P8.5.22., EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} should not send pure experiments to France to disgrace the lot of us, but it has turned out a fortunate disaster, as it burst the commutator quick, and has so saved us making many by a scheme which has proved unsafe.
