EAC.10 'SS{S. Smith}': EXHAUST PIPE. Re. LeC.2518, this appears the simplest form that promises to be efficient, and should be made like this drawing until it is proved to be defective. I think a 4 bolter flange would be more satisfactory at the bottom. I believe we should like it better, and it would be more practical and less costly. R.{Sir Henry Royce} | ||
