Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} ---------- Relo Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} / S&D Yoke is not going to be sent on prodn PHANTOM 111 - RADIATOR. CD. Referring to S.CD.81 F.{Mr Friese} Department have examined this drawing, and are satisfied that it can be incorporated in the radiator assembly with the rear stays. In view of the fact that the rear stays on Phan. 111 are not now thought to be as essential as formerly, no complaints as regards appearance having been received of the stays in front of the radiator, we think this job is not urgent, and suggest that no further work should be done on it until the question is raised again. It certainly does not seem worth while for F.{Mr Friese} Dept. to work on it as (CD) S.CD.81 seems to cover the ground sufficiently. We think S.CD.81 should be filed for future reference.
