X.7772. Re. 24-EX. Phantom ll - 10,000 mile test. I see the report dated the 8th. deals mostly with the collapse of the front expansion chamber. I should be glad to hear from you on the subject and to know whether the part that has collapsed is a standard production part of English Phantom ll. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} | ||
