I note you will be returning GAE-19. immediately after the holidays.

I also note that you have been able to make a complete comparison of the carburettor with one of the old standard carburettors and hope to hear with what result.

I further note that you have reduced the steering shocks by filling the shock absorbers and governor control with oil.
