| X3596 To Dn. from Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c. to CJ. c. to E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} c. to BY. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 1/LG13.1.22. PETROL LEVEL INDICATOR FOR GOSHAWK(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine)) 11. X3596 We think that the petrol level indicator suggested by R. {Sir Henry Royce} in his R3/m3. 1.22. would be excellent for the Goshawk(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine)). Can we take it that we shall be receiving instructions from you as regards this indicator and therefore we need not bother any further with the outside makers? We are actually rigging up a gauge as suggested by R, because we found we had some parts about of the previous R-H gauge which could be easily adapted for this job.
