Windage Reduction.

Sg {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} 6/E17.4.36

Thanks for Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 16/KW.6.4.36. The information given is very interesting.

I agree with the general views expressed in the latter part of Page 2 and think that we might usefully discuss the matter at our next meeting at Derby. I will, therefore, bring it along.
