| SECRET L.H.G Policy To G/Rb.{R. Bowen} from Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/FJH.{Fred J. Hardy - Chief Dev. Engineer} c. to Roy.{Sir Henry Royce} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/FJH.{Fred J. Hardy - Chief Dev. Engineer}9/AP.29.1.37. WRAITH STEERING COST. On the Wraith steering gear we intend to obtain the Roller follower assembly completed with balls and inner races FW.597 and FW.598 from Messrs Ransome & Marles. We have obtained from them a quotation of £1. 6. 6. for a slightly larger assembly, so we think that the Wraith assembly will be approximately £1. 3. 0. We suggest that you should use this price in your estimate of Wraith steering costs. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/FJH.{Fred J. Hardy - Chief Dev. Engineer} | ||
