| HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X204 TO EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} Copy to WOP. U.S.C. Br.{T. E. Bellringer - Repair Manager} E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} We. Jm.{Mr Morley} Mc. re Wind Noises in Cars. I have read with great interest your EV{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}1/IH.20.2.34 relative to the above. It is certainly a very interesting subject and one which it is high time was tackled, and I am glad to see that it looks as if the worst of the noises could be overcome without very great difficulty even on bodies already made or to be made to existing standard designs. Then doubtless further improvements could be carried out on future bodies. I notice that you have not given a copy of your memo. to LES.{Ivan A. Leslie} as Chairman of the C.S.C. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} | ||
