| -2- Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/JBD.{John B. Dixon - Fuel Systems}4/JH.5.4.39. The test conditions are very severe totalling 6960 application of the load with a total time under load of 4 hours 50 minutes. The operating temperature of the plate being from 180°C up to 210°C. The condition of the servo on 8.B.V. will be of interest the sliding bearing being of similar design. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/JBD.{John B. Dixon - Fuel Systems} | ||
