| To BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} RG.{Mr Rowledge} } FROM R.{Sir Henry Royce} c. to CJ. +4634 R3/M11.3.25. RE. SILCHROME VALVES. X.4587 X.4634 I thank BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} for his memo. re the above, and for pointing out that aero engine practice is not the same as chassis, which he thinks superior. I had not remembered that there was a difference. Will RG.{Mr Rowledge} see to this, and if any advantage can be obtained from BY's suggestion of making both like the chassis. R.{Sir Henry Royce} | ||
