| (Crossed out: BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer}) FROM R.{Sir Henry Royce} (Crossed out: HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}) C. (Crossed out: to BJ. WOR.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}) ORIGINAL R2/M6.10.27. re. MAKING REAR AXLE BRAKE BRACKET IN DURALUMIN. (Handwritten: X8420, below is X8350 which is crossed out) Replying to your BY3/J41027., this suggestion has been replaced by my suggestion of using the entire EAC. rear brake. Certainly it would have been too expensive anyway. R.{Sir Henry Royce} | ||
