Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}7/R.9.3.38. Herewith a preliminary weight analysis which shows that we have saved 50 lbs on the front suspension on B.III compared with the Wraith. Seeing that we hope to save considerably on the cost at the same time, the result is not altogether unsatisfactory. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
