| Contd. -2- EFC2/T20.4.22. "R.{Sir Henry Royce} agrees that the ignition as arranged on this works satisfactorily. This is the same as EFC's original modification. -------- --- Seeing that it is working so satisfactorily it is not worth while spending any more time discussing." I am passing on Lec.1550 to Ry. together with his copy of this note. We quite appreciate that the governor must now only start operating at 500 engine R.P.M. Mr. Hives before his departure knew that we were working to curve A, and did not raise any objection. We had several times asked him to give us figures of his own as definitely as he could. EFC. | ||
