| To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from Da{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} X4083 Da{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/Ev{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}2/M23.11.22. GOSHAWK WEIGHTS. X. 4538 X. 4083 X. 4084. With reference to your Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}4/LG20.11.22., we would very much like a reply to our request in Da{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/Ev{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}4/M5.10.22., for the existing weight of the tools and spares, which are going to be supplied with each Goshawk chassis. You will notice that we have only been able to allow 16 lbs. for these against 24 lbs. on the 40/50. This data, together with the new chassis weights you have supplied, will enable us to revise our statistics. Da{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} | ||
