HANDBRAKE - MYTH
--------------
PL.430, the original of which is attached to Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/HH's copy, shows the forward position of handbrake for Myth. The scheme is not to be detailed as the type of handbrake decided on is the one alongside the seat, which is shown in a later scheme.
If this scheme should ever be detailed, the pawl mechanism should be brought into line with that shown on PL.504.
