| X 4617. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} A.{Mr Adams} C. EFC3/T25.1.24. To Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} from EFC. c. By.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} X 4617. RE BATTERIES FOR 40/50 & E.A.C. We have your note Da{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}9/M18.1.24. On first reading your fourth paragraph, we suspected something wrong, and on looking up our own note EFC2/T20.12.23, we have now to admit the error of having given the overall dimensions of the Goshawk battery in place of those of the 40/50. Accordingly we send you a corrected copy and trust you will destroy the previous one. The effect this error has made on your answer is, of course, understood, but with these corrected dimensions you may want to make some modified observations, and therefore we are withholding any general remarks on your note until further hearing from you.
