| -2- Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/FJH.{Fred J. Hardy - Chief Dev. Engineer}12/KW.2.10.35. We consider that a rig of this type would be quite unsuitable for work involving prolonged running or accurate measurements, and would be suitable only as a means of running for very short periods with approximate measurement of torque. Accordingly we do not recommend this rig. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/F.J.Hardy. | ||
