| 6135 W/S. WHX C. [REDACTED] Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}1/WP.5.6.37. Bentley Instrument Lighting. Referring to Cr.{Mr Cra???ster / Mr Chichester}3/KW.5.6.37, a revolution counter with concave dials and suitable lighting arrangement is now in hand at the A.F.Works. Messrs. A.F. were unwilling to give us an exact date for delivery, but the matter will be pushed on. Meanwhile Ay/RH{R. Hollingworth} has prepared the necessary scheme for the instrument board incorporating this rev.counter and the Phantom III panel. This will be made, and as soon as the rev. counter is received from A.F. will be assembled and set to "S" for their comments. I understand C.C. have already informed you that we are committed to the present instruments as far as the end of "L" series. Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
