PHANTOM LUGGAGE GRID.

With reference to Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}3/LG15.11.27., the luggage grid side member referred to is not the latest design.

The latest luggage grid which we have instructed is in accordance with general arrgt. drawing F.76987 and the side members are shown on F.77128 and it will be noted that they are stronger at the points where the fractures have occurred on the luggage grid side members shown on your sketch.
