| TO DY.{F R Danby} FROM DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} C. to -- HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} PHANTOM - MODIFIED SIDE CARRIER FOR ARTILLERY WHEELS. X8600 X4586 (crossed out) Herewith we send N. sch. 2364. shewing the modification to the side carrier for artillery wheels, overcoming the objection raised to our first scheme that when the wheel was not in position the conical plate might make a noise. We have put this up to R.{Sir Henry Royce}, but in the meanwhile if you require to make these carriers we suggest that it can be used. DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
