GAU-14.

You will have received a memo from RC {R. Childs} , Ref. RC. {R. Childs} 1/C.18.10.32 in connection with the abnormal ignition connections of this car, arising out of the application of the three-charge scheme.

Please note that your reply should be sent to me direct as usual in connection with every matter relating to the Company's trials cars.

I understand that this car, GAU-14 had the three-charge scheme fitted when it was handed over to you by St. {Capt. P. R. Strong} and consequently this at the moment represents the only one of our trials cars so fitted.

PN. {Mr Northey}
