| To RHC. {R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} from Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /FJH. {Fred J. Hardy - Chief Dev. Engineer} c. By. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} 628. Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /FJH. {Fred J. Hardy - Chief Dev. Engineer} 6/MH. {M. Huckerby} 27.4.38. WRAITH GEAR BOX. Re your memo RHC. {R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} 2/MC.13.4.38. We do not agree to the omission of the oil scoop from the Wraith gear box. We would point out that we have recently had to standardise this scoop on Bentley IIA and that 29.G.VI has not run under 10,000 miles test conditions.
