With reference to the model produced by Pattern Shop to LeC.1210,- kindly note the scuttle portion should be altered to LeC.1240 herewith, and the complete body produced to make a complete model. By our latest instructions we have arranged that scuttle produced to LeC.1210 should be removed, and scuttle to our drawing F.8228 put in its place.
When producing the complete body now required, kindly instruct the Pattern Shop that we require this producing so that we can fit either the scuttle to LeC.1240, or the scuttle to our drawing F.8228.
Will you kindly forward the attached Print of LeC.1240 to the Pattern Shop, with instructions for this to be carried out, and when complete to be sent to the D.O. for approval.
