the actual jacking apparatus I could minimise the cumbersomeness of it, furthermore I am at work at a system to eradicate the other disability i.e. grip on an uneven surface, and balance on a hill. Were it to prove successful, could you give me any intimation, without of course, committing yourselves in any way whatsoever, as to whether Rolls Royce might consider the apparatus as possibly of some value? ii. Failing its being any use to Rolls Royce, could you give me any idea as to where to try next or what would be, after the engine most suggested? I hope you will not mind my asking you these questions, but I repeat, I am not a business man, and I should be most grateful for the benefit of the experience that you must have through rising to your present position. Yr. faithfully C.R. Acton. | ||
