| 6116 To HPS.{Horace Percy Smith - Experimental Factory Mgr} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/RC.{R. Childs}1/JH.14.12.38. re 9.B.V. The cables to the side lamps at the point where they pass through the wings are unprotected, and will most probably be earthed in a very short time by the sharp corners. Will you please arrange for these to be protected at this point with adhesive tape. We have advised the D.O. that some kind of protection should be included in the wiring scheme.
