Sidgreaves - MD} WOR.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} 25HP. EXHAUST PIPE. R3/M9.4.31. X5230. Here again it seems that the nozzle should look stream ways and might be tried in its simplest form as suggested for P. 1. This smaller model might be curable by webs, which add materially to the strength as well as lowering the temperature - better iron and some definite better chance of sliding. R.{Sir Henry Royce} | ||
