We find a cutout very desirable in France, and recommend we fit this when we have got it right. I am much pleased with the one on 5-G-11, but some improvement and experience is necessary.

A low note horn is very desirable here in addition to Klaxon, which I understand is illegal in the town.

5-Goshawk-11 has no horn.
