| TO BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} FROM DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} C. to - RJ HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} ORIGINAL DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}1/M16.7.27. PHANTOM STEERING. 48430 Herewith we send N. sch. 2431. which is the design of the steering modifications referred to in R5/M14727, including a longer rocker arm with greater area on the nut threads, and a shorter pendulum lever. It will be seen that a new steering box is called for. We endeavoured to use the one instructed for the previous experiment but found that it was impossible. DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
