REAR ENGINE MOUNTING.

Please receive blueprint of

G.CD.706 Rubbers of increased thickness.

With the exception of the thickness of the rubber (which has been increased from 1.000 to 1.500) these units are identical with those shown on G.CD.477 and detailed on FW.1632.

Rubbers have been ordered from Leylands for experimental purposes, and no detailing is required for the moment.
