RE. GOSHAWK(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine)).

Referring to your memo. C3/C10.12.21 giving extracts of minutes of Sales Conference. We should be pleased if you could guide us as regards what type of filocaps Sales would like us to submit - also what type of R-R plates. If you could only let us know what way you wanted to depart from the standard filocaps and R-R Plate and what is the result you are after, we could, in the first place, submit sketches or drawings of these parts.
