WRAITH STHERING PIVOTS.

In our memo Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/FJH.{Fred J. Hardy - Chief Dev. Engineer}2/MH.{M. Huckerby}31.1.38 we asked you to fit PD.97, needle bearing pivot, to 24.G.V1. and 29.G.V1.
As 27.G.V1. is now dismantled in the Shop will you please fit to this chassis the parts intended for 24.G.V1. if they are ready in time. We have the parts supplied by Hoffmanns.
