Smith How is this job progressing

Automatic Carburetter Controls.

We are at present working on two new carburation systems, one for the Wraith and one for the SpectreCodename for Phantom III, and we feel that both these should embody Automatic Mixture and Idling controls.

Hence we should be pleased if you could supply us with information on the functioning of the Automatic Mixture and Idling controls which have already been instructed and made experimentally, as soon as possible.
