| Contd. -2- is sufficient clearance it does not make the slightest difference. When you are satisfied there is nothing silly, wrong with the engine, dont worry about a drop in revs: they will be alright another day. We must get the idea out of Mr. Handasyde that it is necessary to fiddle with the R.M. engine. Dont let him worry you into doing things if the performance is down, tell him it is his plane. I am sending plugs today, they should be better. The figures you have sent for the speed, are they corrected? they seem very poor if they are. Yours faithfully, FH. | ||
