| To RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} From Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} V7080. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}2/MJ.17.3.31. TWIN CARBURETTER AIR SILENCER SCHEME. The silencer on this carburetter is quite inadequate. We shall have to make some alteration before 27-EX. goes away. Will you please make silencers to V.1083 and V.1082 as soon as possible. We think V.1083 is more likely to be successful and therefore ask you to let us have this first. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
