We think it is better not to fit irreversible steering until we have reduced the shocks to the minimum, in which case we probably shall find that the irreversibility may not be necessary, or can be easily applied without distressing the gear.
I hope that the matter which you have now in hand for the steering gear will greatly improve both the Goshawk and the 40/50.

R. {Sir Henry Royce}
