| 5/10 As/West 8605/1 To B. from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} Copy to Nor.Ho. SY.C./ RV/ED.{J. L. Edwards} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. re Instruments. Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}9/El.3.34 Thanks for E.4/HP.28.2.34. I am inclined to agree that the actual illumination of the speedometer on the Terraplane was a little on the bright side and I was more keen on the general idea of interior illumination than a close following of the Terraplane. I note all you say and shall be interested to see something of the schemes to which you refer when I am next with you. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} | ||
