Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 20/KT.7.11.33.

On looking through our file on Wind Tunnel tests, we could not find any tabulated results on the second series of tests you took with the model of the streamlined car, now can we remember having had them handed to us. We know that you did not take very many tests, but we should like to make sure than we have a record of all that was done!
