Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} from Mx{John H Maddocks - Chief Proving Officer} F.J.H. x350 Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} What do we recommend? Mx{John H Maddocks - Chief Proving Officer}18/T10.8.36 Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Phantom III -- Steering. We feel there is a need for some form of positive stop for the steering lock. The arrangement which is intended to act as a stop is unsatisfactory owing to the various limits throughout the front assembly. | ||
