"GOSHAWK(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine))" 11. COIL FOR BATTERY IGNITION SECTION 8140. We have released the above unit for production less the following parts:- Primary Winding ( for our latest instructions to the Experimental Dept., see BY {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} /WER2/EF16.1.22) Secondary " (for our latest instructions to the Experimental Dept., see BY {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} /WER5/EF27. 1.22) Regarding the secondary winding we propose using all the 43 S.W.G. enamel coated covered wired that is in stock, after that any future orders will of course be to the standard wire i.e.,44 S.W.G.
