| X 2372 To BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} c. to CJ. c. to EFC. c. to Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} E7/G23.6.21. X.2512 - RE ARRANGEMENT OF CONDENSER - 40/50 H.P. CHASSIS. X.4054. In reply to your memo EY10/P6.6.21, I have taken up the points you raise with Mr. Royce but he still prefers that the insulation should be cut off half way down. He would like this insulation to be merely a piece of press-pan, as he does not consider that micanite is necessary. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} | ||
