| Rg.{Mr Rowledge} from EFC. c. EP.{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} c. Ey. X4021. EFC2/AD20.8.29. X.4021. WATFORD IS. 12 AERO MAGNETOS NOS.98033/4. EX TYPE TEST ENGINE F.14/MS13. These magnetos have been dis-assembled for examination subsequent to the type test run on the above mentioned engine. A fuller report will be issued later but in the meantime it may be stated that the general condition of the magnetos has been found to be particularly good. It occurred to us you might care to inspect the parts of these magnetos whilst they are dis-assembled. Concerning the re-assembling and testing of these magnetos, we are in communication with the A.I.D. regarding the necessary steps to be taken. EFC. | ||
