Re. your memo Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/IMW{Ivan M. Waller - Head of Chateauroux}/9/JH.10.5.37.

In accordance with your instructions, the FLB.50.X. plugs that were running in the engine were despatched to you last night, as they had been giving trouble due to wide and burnt gaps. If you wish us to have these as spares, would you please return them to us when you have completed inspecting them.

You will note that the gaps when removed from the engine are marked on each respective cardboard guard.
