ORIGINAL TO BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} FROM E/C.L.JENNER. CLJ1/M15.2.26. Copy to SJ. HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} EAC. CONTROLS. X8240 X8430 We send you herewith - LeC. 2198. Magneto controls. " 2200. Control for 'B' column. " 2201. Control for 'C' column. These schemes avoid using the click-on type of ball joints. We have worked at the ball joint for the throttle spindle but as yet we are not satisfied with our design. We think this is now the only click on ball joint on our dept. of the chassis. We do not propose drawing controls for 'D' column as they follow the same lines as 'C' and appear straightforward. E/C.L.JENNER. | ||
