We have telegraphed to BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} even date for a print of the battery ignition Contact arm with off-set pad as we wish to go over the design, and also set out the velocity curve of the make and break.

We will send you as soon as possible a design for the disc type H.T. rotor, but this has to be squeezed in with the remaining aero work on RR.F.10.
