| R. {Sir Henry Royce} FROM E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} SECRET X17770 EL/M28.2.31. C. to SG. {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} WOR. {Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} C. to HS. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} BY. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} JAPAN(Experimental Engine) 3. - REAR END OF ENGINE. X5330 X7008 Please find herewith a print of Lec.2877., dealing with the above. Our calculations show that there should be plenty of friction drive available in the cone mounting for the flange but we shall probably require a stronger note to hold up the load set up by the hydraulic press in assembling.
