- 2 - BY7/G.30.3.28. There is one other matter in connection with the dash whilst dealing with this subject which demands consideration. On EAC.14 dashboard the Experimental Department found during their running in France that the method of staying the column to the dashboard was unsatisfactory. You will have seen their reports, and I would like to know whether you are doing anything to meet the weakness in question. R.{Sir Henry Royce} made certain suggestions on the basis of which we take it you will be letting us have improved designs. BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} for BY | ||
