X.4342.V. To Wd. {Mr Wood / Mr Whitehead} from EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} c. to Shipping Office. c. to Despatch Stores. RE BRAKE WHEEL. We are sending into the Stores a brake wheel which is adapted for fitting to the C.A.V. starter motor for Goshawk II, which Messrs. C.A.V. are producing for us. They wished to make a brake test of this motor before despatching it, but telephoned to us that they had not got a brake pulley suitable. We are accordingly loaning them this pulley which will be returned together with the motor. Will you kindly issue the necessary instructions for this to be despatched to Messrs. C.A.Vandervell right away. I am informing Messrs. C.A.V. of this. EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} | ||
