Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Report on British Standards Dimensions for Airscrew Hubs
Experience had indicated that the basis of the Air Board Standards was not altogether suitable, and that it was necessary to revise the standard dimensions to meet the requirements for certain types of engines and also for engines of 300 h.p. And over. During the inter-allied Aircraft Standardisation Conference held in London in March, 1918, it was ascertained that the progress of standardisation of airscrew hubs in America, France and Italy was no further advanced than in England, and it appeared possible to obtain international standardisation if early action were taken in connection with the high-powered engines.
