| TO BJ. FROM E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} c. to HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c. to BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} ORIGINAL E2/M24.2.23. GOSHAWK 11. MAGNETO IGNITION. X3557 Further to memo. E2/M23.2.23., I have hunted up the correspondence we had with Messrs North of Sep. 1921, concerning a small 6 cyl. magneto, and I attach herewith a copy of Messrs North's letter dated 13/9/21, in which they discuss the position of the small machine. We should not now require a machine fitted with a sleeve, and so far as we can see the Watford G.6. would fit Mr. Royce's requirements for Goshawk 11.
