| To. Dr. From RV/JD.{J. Draper - Frames} Copy to Dr. Ra/H.{Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} Ra/HAG. STEERING - MYTH. ------------------ Attached to Ra/H.{Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints}'s copy of this memo is Fl.429 - 17,000 dia. Steering Wheel for the Myth. This drawing has been produced at Ra/HAG.'s request, to enable the model maker to produce a wheel for the model. The design of this wheel is similar to the proposal design of wheel suggested for the rationalised senior range, which was based on the design of wheel submitted by G.{Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} Paulin. We may not necessarily finally adopt this design of wheel, but feel it is a good chance to see what it will look like. Will Ra/H.{Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} please note this is a model maker's drawing only and no detailing will be required. RV/JD.{J. Draper - Frames} Original of Fl.429 to Ra/H.{Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} Prints to Ra/H.{Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} Dr. Ashby. 2 off for Ra/HAG. | ||
