| 400b. To Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} re 8-B-V.{VIENNA} Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}8/E291238 I notice the report dated the 19th refers to steering joggles which are bad even on a good surface such as an Autobahn. I have had the former reports looked up and, whilst there have been references to wandering and reaction on bad roads, there has been nothing which really indicated joggles - in fact the report of the 11th December indicated that the steering was all that could be desired. It is, therefore, a little confusing and I should like to have your views on the subject. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} | ||
