To Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from CJ. Turning Circles. CJ3/E8/2/24

Referring to your Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 1/LG7/2/24, will the EAC.III short always have such a large turning circle? The L.H. appears to be bigger than the L.H. of the long.

Will the EAC. long have a proportionately greater turning circle than the EAC.III short has as compared with the 40/50 short chassis?

I understood from R. {Sir Henry Royce} that the EAC III short would have a better turning circle than the standard short.
