| To CWB. from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} Y8410 Y235 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn{Mr Robinson}1/LG29.9.27. With reference to CWB6/GM27.9.27. My note was badly worded. Obviously to prevent pitching it is necessary to have damping. I meant to convey that a certain minimum quantity of damping was essential and that we thought we were using this with the present hydraulic shock absorbers fitted to the front and rear.
