| X.426 Extract from Mr Oldham's report 9/10/12. TURNING CIRCLE. This appears to be slightly on the increase. From my old notes I find that we used to turn the old 40/50 (about 1100 series) long chassis in approximately 44 ft. and the short chassis in about 42 ft. From trials taken recently the average circle is about 48 ft. All these figures refer to the diameter of the space required to turn the car round, taken to the outside of the outside wheels (standard 895 m {Mr Moon / Mr Moore} /m). | ||
