Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}7/KW12.2.35 I, of course, remember this customer as being the first, or one of the first, to complaint of wing movement, and I note that the bumper bar does effect quite a considerable improvement. I agree that if Mr.Summers persists in his complaint we should fit the member between the headlamps as on Fairey's car. I am taking it, however, that at the moment, as he is not complaining you do not propose doing this. C. | ||
