| X500a To Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} re 21-G-IV. Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}20/E31.10.35 Referring to Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}4/ETM30.7.35 you will remember you said yesterday that this car would be going back to France with the big bore engine in about 2 weeks. I think it would be useful if you would let me have, before it goes or when it goes, an up-to-date list of things on this car which are being tested with a view to standardization as distinct from things which have already been cleared.
