W/P. EWP.{Mr Punt} from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 1245 Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}4/R.28.2.38. Dear EWP.{Mr Punt}, Thank you for your memos. I note you will explain the noise insulation to Waller. We are very familiar with various schemes which cause the outer brakes to be applied going round corners. From our experience this is not an advantage. Yours sincerely, | ||
