Overhanging Balance Weights - 20/25,
LeC.3758.

We have run a set of these 10,000 miles on GLN-60, held on by one stud only. Those to the LeC. are running on 21-G.IV. Frequently in the past we have run overhanging weights without trouble.

We see no reason therefore why weights to LeC.3758 should not be fitted to the 20/25. They are required to restore the original amount of balance.
