Peregrine Clutch - Stronger Clutch Springs.

With reference to your memo Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/GRY{Shadwell Grylls}1/MA.12.9.32., recommending building up the six chassis with stronger Clutch Springs to Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}667 and clutch operating lever to Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}672; we would point out that 25% stronger springs G.100787 were issued to Experimental Dept. on 30.8.32, along with the Guide, Washer, Spring, Cap and Pressure Ring.

As the loading of these springs is identical we do not consider it necessary to take any further D.O. action.
