X. 2934 - RE "EAGLE" AND "FALCON" CONSUMPTION.

With reference to our recent conversation on the subject of the consumption of the above two engines with the carburettors adjusted to give the best consumption for each particular speed, I have informed Major Evans that we will send him figures as soon as we can obtain them, and that if they are in time for his publication he will substitute them for those we have already given him. I should be very much obliged, therefore, if you could take the opportunity of getting these figures on the first available engines. We should like, say from, 1500 to 2200 (in steps of a 100) for the "Eagle", and from 1700 to 2300 ( in steps of a 100) for the "Falcon".
