Bailey - Chief Engineer} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/GWH.{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux}9/N.29.8.38. -------------------- Engine Oil Filler Cap, Bentley and Wraith. -------------------- I would like to call attention to a fault which has occurred lately, but which is not serious. Within the last month three cases have arisen where the stud F.84531 has unscrewed itself out of the Filler Cap E.88928. One a Mrs Coatalen complained about it. The stud in question relies upon being firmly screwed in. A check on this will probably stop any further trouble. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/GWH.{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux} | ||
