RE FORTNIGHTLY PROGRESS REPORT

Attached is the fortnightly Progress Report.
The designs of Ripplet and Left Hand Silver Phantom being so well advanced we have decided to do some work on the rear end of the Rippletto in order to clear the frame. The second cross-member is the only major item on this section which is outstanding. This done a complete frame can be instructed.
