S/W HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} To Hd.{Mr Hayward/Mr Huddy} from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} re Chassis No.GTR-3. Copy to Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Air Vice-Marshal Longmore. Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}5/E23.5.34 I am in receipt of Hd{Mr Hayward/Mr Huddy}41/HR.17.5.34. With regard to the synchromesh box I previously understood from Lp.{Mr Lappin} that Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} had said that he had a redundant synchromesh box. I should be glad if you would let me know to-morrow at Derby whether this is correct. Assuming that it is, then I agree to the expenditure being incurred in fitting it up and debited to Aero Policy. The other information given in your memo. is duly noted. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} | ||
