| --B. ) FROM R.{Sir Henry Royce} HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} ) BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} ) C. to SG.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} WOH. PEREGRINE DYNAMO. This was discussed here during HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} visit to WW. on the 20. Jan. I suggested reducing its speed to engine revs. for a trial, to see if cutting in was early enough. I think 16 MPH. if we got a good charge would be OK. The 1.2 engine revs. suggested by E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} is quite fast enough. R.{Sir Henry Royce} | ||
