B.V. USED BY Lp.{Mr Lappin}
--------------------

Referring to C.1/ES.1.9.41, we cannot cope with B.22.AW at the Glan at the present moment. We think it would be most useful, however, if "M" could strip and examine it and let us have a report showing what parts they consider will give trouble in service due to excessive wear.

I could then go down and discuss the points in question with them.
