Hy {Tom Haldenby - Plant Engineer} /NS. {Norman Scott} c. Hy {Tom Haldenby - Plant Engineer} /CRL. {C. R. Lisson} Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /AFM {Anthony F. Martindale} 2/R.12.9.38. B.III HAND BRAKE LEVER. On Wraith we found that the hand brake lever lower bell crank got damaged by stones and seized up; accordingly we added the shield GCD.446. B.III hand brake is just as exposed but has no shield. Will you please have the same shield added to Bentley L.O.P. Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /AFM. {Anthony F. Martindale} | ||
