Coverley - Production Engineer} Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} E/JNR.{Charles L. Jenner}1/HP.24.4.36. Phantom III Undershields. When we come to the gearbox which has the large rubber feet we require a new design of dirt covers on the cross. These have now been drawn, as shown on LeC.5085 which we send you herewith. With these rubbers and covers we are obliged to make a new run for the Arens control to the governor damper, the control being brought up over the top of the cross and suitably bracketed to the damper box as shown on LeC.5083 herewith. We send blueprints of these two drawings to RHC{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} to work to for the experimental car which is being erected. E/JDR. | ||
