WATFORD AERO ENGINE MAGNETO.

Yesterday we had a telephone message from Mr. North that they had determined that they could give a 30° range on the new magneto which they are making up, keeping the fully advanced position the same in relation to the magneto, i.e. giving 15° extra retard.

The low sparking speed in the retarded position is not seriously increased.
