| ~~TO BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer}~~ FROM DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} C. to ~~CJ.~~ HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} ORIGINAL DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}5/M7.11.25. NEW PHANTOMCodename for PHANTOM I SHOCK DAMPERS. X 8520 / X.235 We send herewith N. scheme 2085. shewing the proposed new hydraulic shock damper. The position on the chassis is slightly higher than the existing friction shock damper, and a longer connecting rod will be needed which may involve some work on the wings. We shall deal with this point later if necessary. We believe that the drawing itself is self explanatory. DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
