Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls}5/AP.27.2.37. GIRLING BRAKES. We have heard from France that they have discovered a foul in the brake system on 6.B.1V. due to a rod not having sufficient clearance where it passes through the crossmember. They say that since clearing this away the brakes are improved. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls} | ||
