Coverley - Production Engineer}/JMW.5/EMG.25.5.37. Phantom III - Front Suspension. With reference to memo' BY/Cgh.{W Clough}1/W.15.5.37 RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} does not agree with the remarks in this memo' that this job should be introduced on the 1st chassis in 'D' Series, in view of the fact that the Order Office have already ordered the whole of the material for the 200 sets in 'D' Series. RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} definitely states that this job must only be introduced on production without any scrap being involved, and the matter will be reviewed when the job is decided upon by the Experimental Dept., Standardisation Sheets or instructions given by the Administration to proceed, and full instructions issued by the D.O. to all departments concerned.
