| To Roy.{Sir Henry Royce} from EFC. X2791 EFC5/T6.9.27. NON-SLEEVE TYPE WATFORD MAGNETO. Herewith we hand to you Watford sleeveless magneto No.98201 type EW6, this being the first machine received, and sent to us only for electrical bench tests. It was arranged with Mr. North that it should be returned to them. As you know, we have now two further machines, type EW6, Nos.99191 and 99802 which purport to be representative of what we should receive on production. We are progressing the tests of these machines as quickly as possible and will inform you of developments. EFC. | ||
