EAC. 10. AUTOVAC POSITION.

I fear we must move this to the higher position suggested by E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} , but one does not like to place it any nearer the exhaust than necessary. I think however before very long we shall get a carburetter which will go lower down.

R. {Sir Henry Royce}

REC'D, & DESPATCHED FROM WW. 24.1.28.
