With reference to the epicyclic gearbox on 27-EX, would you please tell us how the modifications contained in N. schemes 3296/7. etc, are progressing. We understand that it is possible R.{Sir Henry Royce} will require this modification to be put on to the car for France. Is there anything for which you are waiting for us?
