| To H. {Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} from BJ. Copies to OJ. Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X 3730 BJ6/H1.6.22. GOSHAWK(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine)). With reference to the single door limousine made by Maythorne, I have ascertained that this was made after consultation with Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} , who wished to try the worst kind of body that we could suggest for testing the chassis for noise. This type is a noted boomer. It is not intended to standardise this type. B.J. | ||
