Some Noteworthy Achievements

Some Noteworthy Achievements.

“K.L.G.'S” have been associated with many notable achievements, the most recent of which were Sir Malcolm Campbell's astounding World's Land Speed Record at Daytona Beach of 245 m.p.h. in his racing car the “Bluebird,” and Kaye Don's Motor - Boat Speed Record of 103.9 nautical m.p.h. in Miss England II. Many notable aviation achievements are also credited to “K.L.G.'s,” the most familiar to New Zealanders being Miss Amy Johnson's, Mr. Frank Chichester's and Mr. Oscar Garden's famous flights.

The importance and design of plugs have already been emphasised and illustrated, but care in manufacture is no less vital and it is to this that the success of K.L.G. plugs is attributed.

Every single plug manufactured is’ subjected again and again to the most rigorous tests, devised in practice to ensure perfect suitability. There is no system of percentage inspection, but each individual plug is submitted in the preliminary, partial and completed stages of its manufacture, to test after test.
