Aircraft bearings in 1891?

edit

"The company’s origins date to 1887 in Palmyra, N.Y., where Olin J. Garlock invented a system for sealing piston rods in industrial steam engines. Two years later in the U.K. Findlay Motor Metals was founded in Alperton, Wembley to manufacture die-cast bearings and special motor metals for lining aircraft bearings." Really? Aircraft bearings in motors in 1891? You had better fix/explain that. Meters (talk) 21:15, 4 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

You are absolutely right. They go on to make aircraft bearings, but certainly not in 1891. Removed.--Bearingsareawesome (talk) 18:33, 18 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
