WING STAYS FOR 40/50 CHASSIS. With reference to Sg {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} 7/M24.9.26. We have sent a standardisation sheet round for the front wing stays for the 40/50 HP. chassis. The stays were designed by R. {Sir Henry Royce} and they have completed a 10,000 miles test in France. We therefore recommend that the std. sheet should be completed so that if at any future date we wish to adopt them, we are in a position to do so immediately. Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
