X6079 To By.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from EFC. c. By/RD. EFC1/AD2.4.31. X.6080. PHANTOM II SEQUENCE STARTER GEAR. X.6079. Further to our EFC1/ADL9.3.31, Ry/RD. has pointed out to me that this involves new crankcase and gear box casting and has queried whether, in view of the other modification which we are making, i.e. .300 length of travel after making contact, this should not be put in abeyance for the time being. We agree that this matter be put in abeyance. EFC. | ||
