X.4075 - GOSHAWKII HEAD LAMP WIRING.

We should like to point out that our N. Sch.1243 shews a proposal for preventing the lamp from turning, and so chearing its wires.

It also shews increased facility for leading the wires round the wing stay and lampbracket, and also a method of preventing the accumulation of water inside the wing stay.

What we propose to do is to show a method of armouring a portion of the lead, when we expect that this matter will complete this job.
