Dear Mr. Robotham, I thank you for your letter of the 13th inst. with report from your tester in France, but I do not think there is any doubt that the noise complained of is due to air leak. The new fibre rollers are actually very much softer than those originally fitted. Kind regards. Yours sincerely, | ||
