Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} 11/T13.11.23. X.4383 - GOSHAWKAero EngineCodename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after KestrelAero Engine DYNAMOS. Would you kindly how have removed dynamo No.562 from 3GII, and in its place put dynamo No.604 which we wish to test on 3GII for noise, this dynamo having been rejected by EP. {G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} as noisy. You may remember we have not decided about the noise on that chassis as what noise there was, was drowned by a gear noise. Subsequently we wish to try the straight slotted armature in 604 dynamo, if sufficiently noisy in its present condition. EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} | ||
