26-G-IV. WRAITH - STARTING HANDLE.
We think we want some more information about this. It looks as though the old type starting handle is referred to. The new one seems to have plenty of latitude.
DO YOU AGREE. P.A. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}
Yes. - Old type handle was fixed to 26 GIV. DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} We are now watching 2 schemes of starting handle fitted to 36 GVI and 37 GVI respectively. G.{Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} A.{Mr Adams} Wyman
