TO RG.{Mr Rowledge} E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} FROM R.{Sir Henry Royce} c. to CJ. BJ. HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} EP.{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} PN.{Mr Northey} X4078 R4/M7.1.24. X.4078 X.4269 We find a cutout very desirable in France, and recommend we fit this when we have got it right. I am much pleased with the one on 5-G-11, but some improvement and experience is necessary. A low note horn is very desirable here in addition to Klaxon, which I understand is illegal in the town. 5-Goshawk-11 has no horn. R.{Sir Henry Royce} | ||
