WATER EXCLUSION FROM THE SERVO.
With reference to your Memo.
Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/MHR.{M. H. Rigby}6/ET.13.12.40.
I still feel that a rubber seal will always be most effective against water penetration, provided it could be made to stand up.
I therefore think that you should try this once again before you abandon it.
