PEREGRINE III.

CARBURETTER CONTROLS.

In view of the struggle we are having with the R.R. carburetter distribution, it is proposed to send the next Peregrine to France with the two S.U. carbs. at present fitted to Per.3. We therefore want to try to get some decent controls fitted up to these carburetters. Would it be possible to rig up something working from the scheme produced for the Bentley to LeC.3316.

CARBURETTER SILENCERS.

We should like an air silencer for these carburetters. Here again we should like to work to E's scheme supplied for the Bentley as far as possible.
