To BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} c. to HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} &. EP.{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} ORIGINAL DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}1/M9.9.22. GOSHAWK STEERING. X4264 Mr. Royce yesterday stated definitely that he did not like the car raised .5". This was the result of seeing No.4.Goshawk 11., the appearance of which he considers is spoilt, and which he desires to be restored to the standard camber of spring. This therefore settles the question of the Goshawk steering. DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} RECEIVED S 11 1922 | ||
