| To R.{Sir Henry Royce} from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c. to WOR.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} X8770 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}7/LG15.11.26. PHANTOM IMPROVEMENTS. X3804/X7770 Replying to R3/M13.11.26. In spite of the big push on F.X. we are keeping the chassis work moving. Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} is giving us ample capacity in the Works to help on producing Experimental parts. The difficulty we find at the moment is obtaining complete instructions. The D.O. have done wonderfully well but they have not the reserves to draw upon, like we have with the Works assistance. We are confident now however that the main features of F.X. engine are satisfactory so that we shall have an opportunity of clearing up the car work. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
