Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} had it this week-end. We should take this matter seriously and find out whether it is one of the improved pumps. Bowering should know this. If it is not one of the improved pumps we should like to know from Bowering why it has not been changed. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
