Re MYTH PROJECT.
No.RB.{R. Bowen}18006 - Layout shewing suggested Front Seat with modified Change Speed and Brake Lever positions.
This arrangement should provide for a seat equivalent to the sample seat already tried out in 9-B-V and, by introducing a recessed door inside panel, also gives ample room for operating the Change Speed and Brake Controls.
Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} has already seen and approved of this scheme prior to the issue of the above print.
