RE "GOSHAWK II" CRANKSHAFT PINION SPRING DRIVE AND SLIPPER FLYWHEEL.

With reference to the scheme LoC.1458 sent with our memo E2/G5/10/21, please note the wheelcase shewn is made for attachment to existing crankcases. Future "Goshawk" crank-cases should be altered in accordance with further schemes which we shall send very shortly, to avoid using a two-part wheelcase.

E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer}
