FITTED TO 12-EX - EAC-Vlll. ~~X1163~~ X7550 The support of the Klaxon horn allows it to vibrate and we do not consider it stable enough. The design has been taken up with BY/SS{S. Smith} with a view to a modification being made. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/GWH.{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux} We should watch this point if the cast dash is standardised - we doubt whether it will be. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
