| X8420 CWB5/DN19.3.26. TO Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} FROM CWB Complaints of squeaking brakes are becoming very common both in the case of the "New PhantomCodename for PHANTOM I" and 20 H.P. Are you able to state the exact causes of this and is there any proposal for a modification which will promise a definite cure for the trouble? We realise that possibly it is not the same cause in every case, but the effect is always most objectionable and we feel that it/most important that it should be eradicated. CWB | ||
