| To RHC. {R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} +350 Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Bwg. {J. C. Bowring} 13/KW.3.9.35. Modification to Spectre(Codename for Phantom III) Steering Lubrication, N.Sch.4579. Mx. {John H Maddocks - Chief Proving Officer} has reported that on Spectre(Codename for Phantom III) 4, (Paris Trials) they have lost a lot of oil from the steering box via the Bijur system. We therefore think that to overcome this N.Sch.4579 should be fitted to Spectre(Codename for Phantom III)s 4, 5 & 6. Will you please have the necessary parts made for this work to be carried out. Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Bwg. {J. C. Bowring} | ||
