RH.{R. Hollingworth} c to Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Col. 1280 VHC Radiators Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Ed.{J. L. Edwards}5/GH.21.3.40. re 1.R.1. ------- When the present tests on the above car are completed, we should be glad if you would make arrangements to change the shutter angle to 20°. This could best be done by drilling the replacement top strip which you recently made for us. Following on this test we shall run tests at angles of 10°, 40° and 50°, and we should be glad if you would prepare suitable top strips. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Ed.{J. L. Edwards} | ||
