| HS. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} FROM DA. {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} Copy to BY. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} Copy. X238 re. SHOCK DAMPERS. DA {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} 6/M5.6.31. With reference to BY2/G1631., it would be interesting to us to know the reason for the deletion of the coring and substitution of a flat piston, which is unnecessarily heavy. Could you send us this information. DA. {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
