SPRING STEERING WHEEL. Referring to Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}12/E15.9.32. We obtained a spring steering wheel for 19-G-IV. This is now available for GBT-9, and we have today depatched it to Cricklewood. We have not one for the 40/50 but suggest that GBT-9 is first tried with the one we have sent down, and if you like it, we will immediately obtain one for the 40/50.
