Question No. 13.

Yes, with the exception of the Klaxon push. The general design of both as regards materkal and form is quite different to the remainder of control head. The push button should be larger and more rounded on top. c.f. starter push.

I consider the wheel size comfortable but that the section of rim could be improved by a modification towards making the outer edge more nearly semi-circular, as dotted lines.

C.W.B.
