337. To HPS.{Horace Percy Smith - Experimental Factory Mgr} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Smth.23/JH.3.3.37. 32-EX. We are handing you the high inertia damper removed from 37-EX. We think it is out of balance due to inaccurate location of the inertia rings. Will you please balance it and then fit it to 32-EX in place of the standard damper which is on it at present.
