| To: FJH{Fred J. Hardy - Chief Dev. Engineer}/MHR{M. H. Rigby} from JPB c: VS{J. Vickers} VS{J. Vickers}/HPJ Sunshine Roof I see from VS{J. Vickers}/HPJ 1/MAJ 12.2.57 that Park Ward have in hand a scheme for draining the rear end of the roof by means of a concealed rubber hose. Obviously, if this method works, it is much to be preferred to the external type of drain and I am very sorry to see that Park Ward have been instructed to drop the arrangement. JPB | ||
