| A.M. FORM 1084. X-4021 AERONAUTICAL INSPECTION DIRECTORATE. MEMORANDUM. No. 30 From INSPECTOR IN CHARGE A.I.D. To Mr. Hives (Mr. Clark.) Mr. Rowledge. Mr. Bailey. Mr. Crinage, A.I.D. Date March 30th. 1927 (Ptg). WL 11353-10829 500. 10/24. T.S. 198. Ref:- WHB/D.1227. WATFORD AERO MAGNETOS. In reply to your memo EFC2/T.29-3-27, the position as far as I am concerned is still the same as explained to Mr. North during his visit to these Works, namely, that I have not received any instructions from the Air Ministry with regard to these magnetos. I suggested to Mr. North that he should discuss the position with Col. Fell of the Air Ministry, as I thought that would be the best way to get some definite decisions, but I have heard nothing further. Meantime, I cannot authorize any work to be done on magnetos either your own property or Air Ministry property. [Signature: J A Sillie] A.I. For D.D.A.I. RECEIVED 31 MAY 1927 | ||
