| X108 E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} 8/KT.17.10.32. SEMI-EXPANDING PEREGRINE CARBURETTER. We are sure that the annular connection to the slow running device on the Peregrine carburetter will be unsatisfactory in production due to the variable air leak, which will be introduced at this point according to the limits on the choke and carburetter body. Our own experience has been that any air leak on the slow running system has failed. We think that some alternative scheme should be produced. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} | ||
