x560 S/W To Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} re GLG-5. Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}5/E30.6.36 Thanks for Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}26/KW.23.6.36. I thought you would be interested to know that, subsequent to my note of the 22nd, we found that the cover of one of the horns was loose which apparently was causing the tinny and muzzy note to which I referred. Since this was tightened up, the horns have been quite OK. The original ones are now to hand and I am having them fitted and the new ones returned to Derby. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} | ||
