The condition of dampers and the control system, with travel arrangements.


Identifier  ExFiles\Box 11\4\  04-page184
Date  30th January 1933 guessed
  
The dampers are showing no signs of oil leaks &.
the control system is generally speaking dry with
the exception of the banjos on the governor box
which show signs of leaking but the actual oil
lost is very small.

The dampers are remaining tight in the frame &
show no signs of fidgeting.
The front damper levers touch the tyres on full
lock.

I will forward Mr Slaters report to you when
it is complete.

He has a run tomorrow with Earl Cholmondeley.
& so I shall not be able to reach Chateauroux(French test region)
before Wed.
