| COPY. SECRET. Headquarters, Central Landing Establishment Royal Air Force, Ringway, nr.MANCHESTER. CLE/S.1406/2/s. Your ref. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/12/ML. 15th February, 1941. Dear Robotham, There are some slight changes in the Requirement Memorandum again, the suggestion in para.8 may turn out to be unnecessary in a winch of your construction. 2. Para. 5 is to provide for the speeds of these things increasing. If you can leave room for a bigger drum which could be constructed and fitted at a later date if necessary, it would be a good thing. Yours sincerely, Sgd. BUXTON Mr. Robotham, Messrs. Rolls-Royce Ltd., D E R B Y. | ||
