| 8H1 & HH1 To HPS{Horace Percy Smith - Experimental Factory Mgr}/RH.{R. Hollingworth} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/JBD.{John B. Dixon - Fuel Systems}8/JH.7.6.39. SERVO DISCS B.V. & B.50. We have removed all existing stocks of VG.90 servo discs from the stores and shop. (total 11 pieces). These have been supplied in the wrong material and as they are indistinguishable from the genuine VG.90 confusion would have been bound to arise. In the meantime we have supplied two genuine discs and will urge the delivery of further supplies as all existing servo discs will have to be changed, and a record kept of what servos have been modified.
