In reply to Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Gry {Shadwell Grylls} 6/AP22.11.37, and with reference to the two special sets of tyres for 25/30 and P.III respectively which we recently fitted of the variable pitch type, these so far have only done 2000 miles on the P.III and 1000 miles on the 25/30. There is no apparent difference yet in the degree of silence which was noticeable when they were first fitted. Cx. {Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} Suel | ||
