To RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} [Handwritten annotations above main text]: X7005 X8005 (crossed out) X7005 [Typed reference and date]: Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn{Mr Robinson}2/LG11.6.28. Herewith scheme to enable us to use a very flexible engine mounting on 10-EX and yet prevent the engine dropping. Also the same scheme applies to standard rubber engine mounting. As we have to decide the final form the rubber engine mounting will take very shortly, we should like to try these bits out as soon as possible. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} | ||
