| X.4567 Extract from Da {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} /Ev {Ivan Evernden - coachwork} 3/M5.12.22. X.4219. (6) 20 HP. CHASSIS TEMPLATES X.4567. Sales are in need of templates for testing the rear axle and wing clearances on the Goshawk(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine)). Will Derby please set out templates on the revised 40/50 type which are easily portable. The old type as used on the 40/50 are comparatively useless. We do not think a scheme from WW. is necessary.
