HIGH SPEED STEERING WOBBLES. We thank you for your PN{Mr Northey}&/EH21.9.25 containing information re. slow motion kinematagraph film which we were thinking of taking. If we find we cannot ascertain what we require to know in any other way, we will communicate with Messrs. Pathe Freres and get them to take a film for us. At the moment however, the expense seems so great that we feel inclined to try everything else first. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
