I see on the latest quarterly complaints there are 6 complaints of damper knocks on Phantom III and 2 on 30 H.P. From our talk I understood that there was only 1 Phantom III complaint and no 30 H.P. complaints from N. Hd.{Mr Hayward/Mr Huddy} informs me that all 8 damper knock complaints come from N. Can you investigate. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Les.{Ivan A. Leslie} | ||
