| To BY. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from Da. {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} c. to CJ. Wor. {Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X.4263. Dal/M20.3.23. GOSHAWK(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine)) 11. RADIUS RODS X.4263. We send herewith N.sch.1387 shewing the rear end of the radius rods and bracket. It will be seen that the general lines follow those of the Stork(Experimental pneumatic (air) front wheel brakes) - N.sch.1336. The slight modifications that have been made arise principally from the position of the centre line of the radius rod with reference to the side member. The question of putting this into production is the same as we referred to in sending you N.scheme 1386. Da. {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} DEVACHOKEE | ||
