We have tried out the Jaguar exhaust systems on the Test Bed, and it is evident that this is likely to be, approximately, what we require on B.III. We are experimenting with various manifolds, so that it is somewhat early to say exactly what will be required regarding this part of the system, but we should like somebody to look into the question of fitting these Duplex silencers into the frame.
