25 HP. Servo Suspension Bracket.

Re our memo. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/FJH.{Fred J. Hardy - Chief Dev. Engineer}17/KW.5.4.35 concerning the adaption of N.Sch.4406 to the 25 HP. servo.

The Design Dept. have pointed out that the shorter suspension bracket as used on the Bentley could be used on the 25 HP. without any fouls, etc., and would save our making two brackets identical, except for length.

When detailing the above scheme for the 25 HP. will you please make the bracket to the standard Bentley length as shown on the scheme. In this case the scheme will be suitable for the 25 HP. exactly as shown and will not need any adaption. The balancer lever will be the present standard 25 HP.

Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/F.J.Hardy.
