35-EX. LOCKHEED BRAKES.

We understand that the last of the pieces of the Lockheed brakes instructed for a Ph.III. will be ready by the 25th. of this month.

Will you please build them on 35-EX. Now that the chassis is stripped this should be a good opportunity to fit them.

This cancels the instructions concerning brakes in Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls}9/AP.7.5.37.
