RE "EAGLE(Aero Engine)S" IN TANKS.

DA {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} 4/G12/9/21. 2

As arranged with you when you were here, I send herewith N.Scheme 950 shewing a rough arrangement of the proposed induction pipe for single carburettor, so that you may build up roughly a trial set of pipes and report on their suitability.
In the pot at the end of the central pipe, it is intended to fit a gauze to prevent back-firing.

Would you please return the original drawing to me when you have taken prints.
