X4086 To R.{Sir Henry Royce} from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c. to CJ. c. to R.{Sir Henry Royce} c. to Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} c. to HY.{Tom Haldenby - Plant Engineer} c. to Ry. HsG/L.G14.6.22. G-GOSHAWK-11. We attach a report we have received from Ry. ref. Ry/10.6.22 re. the above car. Now that the Works are starting up again, we propose having G-Goshawk-11 returned to the Works in about a weeks time. By the time the car reaches Derby, it should have completed a total of 14,000 to 15,000 miles since it was built. We hope to have G-Goshawk-11 complete in two or three weeks time with all the modified parts fitted. There will still be left in France - 7-Goshawk-11. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
