| ORIGINAL To DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Hsl/LG29.3.34. BRAKES. X 9910 Attached are particulars you asked for with regard to friction losses with the WW. servo. We shall be making further tests with the plates located by pegs and as large a radius as possible. Lovesey suggests that by cutting the present jaws at an angle, we could gain a certain mechanical advantage. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
