RE GOSHAWK(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine)) 11 DYNAMO DRIVE.
We send you herewith scheme LeC 1514. shewing the above.
This drawing gives you particulars of the alterations necessary to the crank-case to enable the Dynamo drive gear wheel to be independently mounted.
Some further information of a minor character is probably required, but this scheme enables you to put the alterations to the crank-case in hand.
We are dealing with the additions to the control, necessary for advancing and retarding the magneto.
