To RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer}

Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wym.{G. Harold Whyman - Experimental Manager}1/KW.5.10.34.

25 HP. Flexible Engine Mounting.

We have now tested on 20-G-IV the
flexible suction pipe from autovac to induction pipe
built up to LEC.4085. We have rejected this scheme
and the D.O. have replaced it with another to
R.R.Scheme 753, which we should like you to build up
and fit to 21-G-IV.

This of course cancels the fitting of
LEC.4085 scheme to 21-G-IV and Wor{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}'s car GUB-5, as
requested in our memo. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wym.{G. Harold Whyman - Experimental Manager}15/KW.20.9.34.
