| To R.{Sir Henry Royce} from BJ. Copy to Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} Copy to Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Copy to DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} Dipping Headlights. Referring to your R2/M2.12.27 if the design has been practically completed, we should like to see a set in London. As mentioned in BJ24/E1.12.27 we fully appreciate the many advantages of the WW scheme and, as you suggest, it may be quite worth while for us to make use of the WW scheme in place of the Barker scheme until the dipping reflector has been more perfected. I am asking Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} kindly to let us see a set in London. BJ. | ||
