(3) GOSHAWK SWITCH. X.4081.
Sales wish now to adopt our suggestion of a year ago and to make the switchbox on the instrument board enter the board from the rear and have a dummy flange in front. This has the distinct advantage of enabling the wiring to be done at Derby and never disturbed. This modification entails very slight alterations. Could we do this on the next series?
