Mr. Hancock from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} It is difficult for us to say whether 93-NK will return by the end of this month. I think the safest policy is to renew the Laissez Passer for another month. The two points which we urgently require information about on 93-NK are whether the piston rings are going to remain efficient as regards keeping the oil down. We also require further tests on big end bearings. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
