To Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} from Sg. {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}

re 21-G-IV.

Sg {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} 20/E31.10.35

Referring to Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 4/ETM30.7.35 you will remember you said yesterday that this car would be going back to France with the big bore engine in about 2 weeks.

I think it would be useful if you would let me have, before it goes or when it goes, an up-to-date list of things on this car which are being tested with a view to standardization as distinct from things which have already been cleared.
