| To Sg. {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} From Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /KT. X3066 Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /KT.21/MJ.22.12.33. Re. Standardisation Sheets - Lightened Parts. Replying to your memo Sg. {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} 7/E.21.12.33., referring to the long delay in completing the two Aero Standardisation Sheets on lightened parts, the reason for this is because the costing of the sheets was not completed until a few days ago due to the fact that detail drawings have had to be made by the D.O. since the Sheets were first issued. Until all detail drawings had been completed, the costing of the sheets was held up. Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /KT. | ||
