            Fully Floating Servos.

The Standardisation Sheet for Fully Floating Servos on the Bentley should have included the ball bearing bridge to N.Sch.3927. This feature has run 15,000 miles on 21-G-IV in France and a considerable mileage on the streamline(Experimental Streamline Bentley B.23.A.E)d Bentley in England. We think therefore it might be fitted on Production without the formality of a Standardisation Sheet.

We find also we have not sent a sheet round for fitting this servo to the 20/25. We are doing this now and shall of course include the new type bridge.
