| M.Olley, Esq. -2- 5th. January 1938. we intend to follow your suggestion and record attitude as well as steering angle, so that we can plot slip angles. we are thinking of rigging up a simple apparatus instead of a Theodolite to sight the centre post and would like to hear of methods you have tried for obtaining slip angles on the Skid-pan. Yours sincerely, | ||
