SERIES - INSTRUMENT PATCH. ------------------------------------------------- As we are compelled to issue instructions for a further 50 chassis in order to maintain continuity of output, it will be necessary for us to order a further 50 sets of instruments to the present standard. Will the D.O. therefore issue the necessary instructions immediately to the O.O. The above instruction means that we shall now be producing the old standard instrument patch for chassis up to the 100th in O.2. series. BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} [Signature] | ||
