| -2- Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std.3/AP.4.5.37 Summary We think that the fan blade set to EW.947 should be adopted for 25/30.HP. and Bentley cars - it should be cheaper than the present standard blade sets and should be more reliable - we are accordingly fitting one to the next 15,000 mile Bentley and will issue a Standardisation Sheet if it completes the run successfully.
