Sir Charles Kingsford Smith relied on J. & S. Piston Rings for his epic Transtasman Flight in a machine like the "Southern Cross" it is reliability that counts; Sir Charles Kingsford Smith took no chances. He made certain that everything that went mto his famous plane could be depended upon. When the "Southern Cross" was overhauled in Palmerston North J. & S. Piston Rings were fitted to every piston in the plane. In all, over nine dozen rings were supplied. The following letter speaks for itself. Read this testimony from his chief engineer! Grand Hotel, Palmerston North, Feb. 24th, 1933. Messrs. B. Johnson & Sons Ltd., Parnell Rise, AUCKLAND. Dear Sirs, Many thanks for your prompt attention to our order for piston rings, which were very satisfactory, and are now doing good work in the three Whirlwinds of the "Southern Cross." Sir Charles asks me to thank you for the rapid work and quick delivery. / Being so satisfied with your rings to date, I would like to instal them in my own Gipsy Moth in Sydney, so will you please forward me 12 compression and 6 oil scraper rings. Sir Charles has asked me to tell you that from now on we intend purchasing from you all the rings we need for the six Whirlwind motors we use. (Signed) J. T.
