re Bensport.

Herewith please find print of LeC.3234, showing calculations for balance, and bearing loads of smaller blower, which we meant to send with our memo E.7/HP.12.10.32.

We have readjusted the thickness of our thick blade to maintain the blower in balance as regards forces.

There only remains a comparatively small couple unbalanced.

E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer}
