To EP.{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} from Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/AFM.{Anthony F. Martindale} c. Hd.{Mr Hayward/Mr Huddy} 506 Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/AFM.{Anthony F. Martindale}4/AP.5.8.37 BRAKE SQUEAKS 25/30. - AERO SERVICECAR 21.G.IV. In reply to your memo EP.{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer}/MH.{M. Huckerby}2.7.37., we thank you for your information regarding the M.L. linings which have not been satisfactory. We have none of the latest linings in 25/30 sizes so if you will have the brakes relined all round in the Repair Dept. with standard material and charged to order No.54105 this should make the car serviceable again.
