| To Wd.{Mr Wood/Mr Whitehead} from EFC. c. to Ey. X4075 EFC1/T23.2.22. X.4075 - "GOSHAWK" WIRING. As delivery of the coloured wiring for the Goshawk will take at least a month from date, and as the quantity of 70/36's and 40/36's wire at present available is limited, we consider it advisable, providing Messrs. Glover can supply this at an earlier date than the coloured, to order from them 6 sets of the 23, 40 and 70/36's wire without the special colouring, but otherwise similar to specification of that wire. It may be that Messrs. Glover may have some wire in stock similar to that previously supplied to us in the case of the 40/36's and 70/36's. In any case, we consider that we should order from Messrs. Glover the nearest thing they can supply quickly. EFC. | ||
