B.111, B.50 and WRAITH.
REVISED UNIVERSAL GEAR BOX.

Herewith is FD.{Frank Dodd - Bodies}96 which shews a modification to the width of the 1st speed and reverse gear, with slight resulting modifications to the box, which should be incorporated in the details now being made.

The object is to reduce the load per inch, which is considered slightly high as originally drawn.
