To BY {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} /Shn. from Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}

Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 4/LG5.9.22.

X.4340 - 40/50 CHASSIS BONNET.
FERODO STRIP LACING.

BY {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} /Shn2/DB {Donald Bastow - Suspensions} 31.8.22.

We are sending a standardisation sheet round
for the above and recommend that it should be incorporated
on "R" series.

We recommend however, that we should copy the
Goshawk(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine))-11 arrangement and not use the fancy cross lacing
on the bonnet strips.
