| Steering Wobbles. -X.457 File Wor{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}/ Hy{Tom Haldenby - Plant Engineer} 10/L106/13 We have not yet received the plain thrust bearing. There has been some delay between the Order Office and the works but all is now in order and we should have these thrust washers in a day or so now. I have just received Mr Royce's note giving description of tackle for testing the degree of reversibility. I will consult the Drawing Office and have the parts put in hand.
