Confidential memo requesting an inspection and report on a B.22.AW engine due to concerns about excessive wear.


Identifier  ExFiles\Box 97\2\  scan0222
Date  9th September 1941
  
Private & Confidential.

To C. from Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer}

Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 8/ET.9.9.41.

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.
