| -2- Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/ACL.1/AL.24.12.30.Cont of the advantage we have obtained over the standard carburetter. Drawing the air through the crankcase appears to possess several advantages. A flame damper would be advisable and probably the honeycomb type described in our Paris Aero Show Report would be useful. We should like to have a scheme prepared so that we could test the efficiency of the above scheme. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/A.C.Lovesey. | ||
