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.
