X8430 PN{Mr Northey}3/DN3.5.26. TO Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} FROM PN{Mr Northey} PHANTOM STEERING. Thank you for your Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}3/LG1.5.26. I quite appreciate your remarks as to the greater suitability of the improvements from the point of view of getting the right testing conditions. I have decided to wait until next week before coming to Derby, when I hope by then you will have heard from Hancock and Ps. of the results of the three different strengths of springs they will be trying. I also have to be in Derby on other matters. [Signature] PN{Mr Northey} CRA. | ||
