X. 2375 To BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from EFC. EFC5/T19.5.24. X.2375 - WATFORD E.6 MAGNETO No.42567. EX CHASSIS 76-CE - LIECHTI. Herewith please find copy of my assistant's remarks in connection with this magneto, from which you will see that there was a defect in the magneto apart from that of the failure of the contact points. Accordingly we are returning this magneto, so that you may take what steps you think desirable. We have still not received from you the contact breaker E.93 which we utilised for the points test of the previous magneto. On the other hand we received from you, apparently in error, the magneto No.33071 previously tested - this we are also now returning. EFC. | ||
