| -/- RB{R. Bowen}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls}S/EH.15.9.38. Yoke. This will be of the B.50 wide track type arranged to give the latest requirements of pivot lean. Leslie will arrange the ordering of dies. ---------------- It was agreed that details of all parts except the brakes and servo could be complete by October 8th., and that those of the brakes and servo should be ready by October 29th. It is most important that details must be accompanied by complete LOP's and index sheets. EFS. has not yet received LOP's for either B.50 or B.111 and these are urgently required. EFS. said that if the LOP dates were kept to, the car should be ready by Christmas. EH. pointed out that the body could usefully be here by the middle of November, and that therefore, the body is one of the most urgent items of the car. RB{R. Bowen}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls} | ||
