In view of the fact that we cannot obtain any further supplies of the "Mercury" Plug, it has been agreed upon that we should order 500 KLG. Plugs of the same type that we are using in the Goshawk, I believe it is K.1. but Mr. Mills' records will settle it. When the plugs in question are delivered, they should be distributed as follows:- 100 should go to Cricklewood. 100 should go to Repair Dept. 300 should go to Test Dept. who will arrange to deliver engines with six Lodge and six KLG. the KLG. taking the place of the Mercury. In addition, three KLG. spares will be supplied. BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} By [STAMP: RECEIVED AUG 8 1922 H8] | ||
