| BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} c. to E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} X107 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} 2/KT.24.3.33. We think we shall have to alter the Peregrine camshaft E.100863 because we have too much overlap for R.R. slow running. Will you, therefore, please ensure that we do not go too far with the production of camshafts for the time being. If you will let us know when they must grind some to keep to the programme, we will let you have our recommendations. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} | ||
