We hand you herewith N.Sch.4284, being the modification Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} recommends to overcome the trouble we had on Fairey's car. We should be glad if you would make as many of the 6 sets we have ordered as have not already gone too far with the machining to this scheme. The one for Fairey's car is of course urgently required, and will be to the Experimental scheme. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
