| To HPS.{Horace Percy Smith - Experimental Factory Mgr} from Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std. 1269. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std.1/M.H.31.8.38. Referring to Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std.24/JH.25.8.38, we wish to cancel the grease packing instructions contained therein, and instead wish you to pack the fan entirely with water pump grease (Mobil Grease No.6) which can be obtained from the Experimental Garage. This is required because Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} considers that one grease and one grease only should be used throughout the chassis. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std. | ||
