| X.4327. To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} c. to CJ. BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} EP.{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} E7/M/16.12.22. GOSHAWK 11. MAGNETO COUPLING SHAFT. X.4327. Referring to scheme No.453, Mr. Royce approves of fitting a spring in the coupling, but he would like to see the spherical damping surface with its centre corresponding to the centre of the coupling, also some of the taper work in the trepanned portion of the coupling might be dispensed with.
