| To Ry from R.{Sir Henry Royce} c. to EH. c. to BJ. ORIGINAL. St.{Capt. P. R. Strong} Margaret's Bay. Sept. 13th. 1917. X.2871 / Re - New Wiring Tube. R2/W12917. I have a note from Mr. Hives suggesting the standardisation of the new wiring tube, saving the weight per engine of 3.37 lbs. It is very desirable to save weight since it would appear to suffer nothing. RECEIVED 14 SEP 1917 R.{Sir Henry Royce} | ||
