Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 2/MJ.6.1.31.

Attached herewith is a list of parts we wish to standardise as a result of running 18-G4. in France.

Standardisation Sheets are being sent out for most of the items. On the three main items, engine mounting, new dynamo drive, flywheel and clutch, we need some modifications in the design before they can be adopted. Modified designs are in hand and are at present being tested.
