RECEIVED 1931 FEB 11 It would appear that we are likely to have to introduce modifications to the shock dampers in the near future, judging from information received from R. {Sir Henry Royce} This being so, it is important that the Works should not get ahead of their actual requirements from week to week in finishing off these parts. This applies to both chassis, but more particularly to the front damper on R.11. BY. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} | ||
