SIDE WITHOUT ^detracting in the slightest from the wondeful performance of the Napier " Lion " engine on the De H. (Airco.) machine which achieved the world's height record, of which particulars were given in " FLIGHT " last week, it may be pointed out that Claudel-Hobson carburettors were fitted. It is but the last of a long series of successes in which this carburettor has played a most important part, but the Claudel-Hobson firm, in common with so many other accessory makers, have had to hide their light underji bushel during War time. ANOTHER effective participant in the record performance was Wakefield " Castrol R " oil, and we are reminded that all British aviation records since 1910 have been effected with the aid of this British lubricant. To our collection of calendars has now been added a charm ing one from the Sunbeam Motor Car Co., Ltd., " The Sunbeam of 1919." It is beautifully printed, and bears a pretty picture, in colours, of one of the latest Sunbeams arriTing at a country house. Another suggestive shop at the Ham factory of the Sopwith Aviation Company. 93
