Sft.{Mr Swift} c. Won. c. EP.{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} c. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Y4117 BY/Cgh{W Clough}/G.23.4.30. re CHASSIS 34-GN. FAIREY. With reference to EP{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer}1/H.14.4.30. the position in regard to Items 1 and 4 is as follows :- 1/- According to our information this chassis should have been fitted with a new fan bracket which makes it impossible for the fan to foul the shutter control lever, but it would appear that it has been fitted with an old type bracket. therefore will the Works please supply a new one. 4/- Will the Works please supply a larger output dynamo modified on the same lines as the one fitted on Malcolm Campbell's chassis, i.e. with the tapered air gaps.
