| (8) We have heard from our Photostat copies of drawings as they show that road shocks on certain Co. exist which create change due to the high roll centre. By devising this accordingly is to do so for other necessary. We shall have to visit Pipers about the items. 107 (9) Brakes no longer have to be so well settled & since the oil is circulated in the oil cooler which I believe was a 70°F or thereabout temperature, or over which warming up. They obtain their result now & to be correct at current temperatures. I will send such drawings later. GRY{Shadwell Grylls} | ||
