With regard to the Bentley. We have had another severe front brake jagger. It is serious. In my opinion the spring loaded axle control is the cause, and I am going to make the bottom bearing choc a bloc. We know definitely that any looseness in the axle control produces brake jagger. We had signs of it on the 25 and found slack in the top ball joint, since making this O.K. there has not been the least sign. We lost a little time on the test because I was too ill to carry on. G.H.
