| X5788 m To Hm{Capt. W. Hallam - Head Repairs}/NRC.{N. R. Chandler} from EFC. EFCI/T6.5.27. RE WATFORD ROL. MAGNETO. We have no records in our experimental files of failures of Watford ROL. magnetos, excepting those due to weak magnets, which trouble we understood was satisfactorily overcome some considerable time ago. We think that any recent information (say within the last 18 months) referring to failures of these magnetos, which you have in your possession should be passed on to us. The records which we have are at least 18 months old. EFC. | ||
