| To RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} X328 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls}15/KW.12.7.35. Will you please build up for us one of the steel couplings in front of SpectreCodename for Phantom III gearboxes, with a spider each side, so that we can measure the bending movement required to produce a given deflection such as is caused by malalignment of engine and gearbox.
