AUTHORISATION SHEET NO. 10. - "INDIA" PLUS F.W.B.
-------------------------------------------------
We have received a modification to the brake pedal gear on "India" plus FWB. by which a stop is introduced to limit the position of the pedal in its "off" position.
The parts in question are necessary and have been supplied because Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} pointed out that such a stop is necessary to the design.
It will mean producing two parts in sheet metal work. In an emergency, a certain number of these can be prepared by hand.
This does not affect "India", but only "India" plus F.W.B.
