RE "GOSHAWK II" REAR SPRINGS AND FITTINGS:

In reply to your memo BY/P22/4/21, kindly note
Mr. Royce would like to adopt the suggestion to use finishing dies, and merely grind up the faces of the bosses on the spring pin bracket, and he wishes the bracket to be reduced in width to, say, .875" throughout. The brake cables should remain at their present centres.

E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer}
