Re: HEADLAMPS AND HORNS. B.50.

Herewith is PD.349 shewing the headlamps, horns and wing stays for B.50, redesigned to suit the wider front track.

We regret that it is not possible to use the same pressing for the wing stay as on Wraith 80 MMT (PD.345).

The headlamp tube has to be lengthened from that of B.5.
