-2- Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}1/MJ.14.11.31.Cont'd.{John DeLooze - Company Secretary} When I have completed the present series of tests on the 40/50 I believe the results may be of sufficient interest for you to come over here and see the various figures, as they demonstrate the characteristics of several induction systems and might possibly be of some assistance to you in the future. The petro-lift is being run on a continuous road test, the only comment I have to make is that it is noisy in operation but I expect could easily be silenced. I apologise for my delay in answering your letter but I have been away. Yours faithfully, For Rolls-Royce Ltd. | ||
