Agreed to by R. {Sir Henry Royce} , DA. {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} , & E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} , the lattering making the following remark -
"One would have thought the test should have been "250 times. The Dunlop jack for balloon tyres - "a sample - seen in Derby had a very short "bearing for the overhung bevel pinion, which "bearing looked as if it would soon wear. We "suggest bearing 50% longer."
