X8796 I attach hereto copy of letter received from Messrs. North & Sons, as a result of my writing them pointing out that we anticipate coming on to the new magneto in the near future, and asking them the position in regard to the present type of magneto and tools required for the new one. In view of the fact that the standardisation sheet is going round it certainly appears that we ought to make a definite effort to use the 50 EO.6 type magnetos referred to in Messrs. North's letter.
