C.W. Ward Esq.,
Messrs. Park Ward, Ltd.,

LONDON N.W. 2.

Dear Mr. Ward,

It has been pointed out to me that the instruments in two of the B.V bodies that have come here are in different positions.

The bodies in question are B-18-AW and B-24-AW. I believe that the layout in B-18-AW is correct for production. The No. of the layout is DB.{Donald Bastow - Suspensions}2115.

Unfortunately, I could not give the reason for the difference, but you will probably be able to give a very good reason.

Yours sincerely,
