E.4/HP.1.1.36.

re Chassis No.3-AZ-20. Trials Car for the Continent.

Replying to your memo Tr. {Capt. F. W. Turner - Finance} 3/SB. {Mr Bull/Mr Bannister} 30.12.35, it is just as necessary to fit a louvred bonnet to a Phantom III for Continental conditions as it was to a Phantom II, and this is the ruling we consider necessary until further progress is made.

E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer}
