Copy. S/W. {Sales / Derby Works} EP. {G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} Le2/C/16.4.32. Re. 20/25 HP. Front Wings. Thank you for your EP {G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} /Thn4/H15.4.32., and copy of Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Lid. {A. J. Lidsey} 2/MA.14.4.32. I note the suggestion was that we should use one more wing stay than usual and alter the position so that they are equally placed. Does this mean that you will shortly be sending chassis through with an extra wing stay, or do you wish us to get the Coachbuilders to do this? If so, I shall be glad if you will let me have a sketch. J.L.E. | ||
