| To RHC. {R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} from Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rn. {Mr Robinson} Handwritten top: X4426 Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rn {Mr Robinson} 2/LGL. 6. 27. We are anxious to test the hydraulic shock damper and Hartford shock absorber on the rear of the bump test. Handwritten right: X4426 X235 We think that the same arrangement as at present used on 10-EX will be satisfactory. We should be obliged if you could fit it up in this manner. We are also anxious to try the three types of spare wheel carrier arrangements at present in existence. Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rn. {Mr Robinson} | ||
