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

Referring to Rl/M.25.11.24. the position is that in regard to the seven items quoted by R, under the heading "G.II.A", all of these are on production except Items 2. and 7.

In regard to these, the first one you have never felt very satisfied or hopeful about. The second one we have instructed, but it was only received on the 27th October at Derby, therefore you have had very little time to make any decision in regard to same, and of course it is impossible that it can be on production.
