| To Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} from E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} c. to BJ. c. to Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} c. to BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} c. to Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X4260 GOSHAWK 11. E2/M28.1.22. PARALLEL FRONT DUMB IRON FIXING. X.4260 We send you herewith drawing No.LeC.1528 shewing the above. In this design the dumb iron fixing is made parallel for the sake of ease of production and simplicity, and Mr. Royce would like you to make a test of this with a view to standardisation as soon as convenient on the Goshawk. It should not however interfere with production, and the designs already sent through to the present standard frame. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} | ||
