| Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} RECEIVED 15 JUN 1926 TO Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} PN{Mr Northey}5/DN15.6.26. X5430 FROM PN{Mr Northey} In considering the Standardisation Form X.No.5430 - Modified Steering to 20 HP -, we are much concerned with the statement that it is proposed to increase the turning-circle of this chassis from 41 to 47 ft. We should like to know whether those concerned with the design of this modification are satisfied that there is no other ready means of achieving the same result without introducing this serious disadvantage. | ||
