| To Mx.{John H Maddocks - Chief Proving Officer} from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} X.38 1004 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}1/LG12. 3. 29. We hand you herewith a report from OY. ref. OY/RHF2/25.2.29. We think the tests he describes might be of use to you in checking production cars, and possibly you might like to do something of the sort to see if you can in any way confirm his results. We cannot say that we have experimentally observed such discrepancies, but we rarely have two cars that are alike. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
