Bentley Flex.Engine Mounting.
-------------------------

Herewith is N.Sch.4133 which deals with the remaining point raised in BY.4/G.11.7.34. viz. a larger oil pipe for carrying away the overflow oil.

We also show a modification to the shape of the gearbox cover which gives additional clearance with the sheet metal bracket carrying the gearbox.
