For the attention of Major Carrington.

Dear Sirs,

Re. K.L.G. 765 Plugs.

Thank you for your letter of the 26th inst. We will let you have a report on these plugs as soon as we have made the necessary tests.

We find we are rather close to the casting for the plug spanner, and should like the body of the plug to be made slightly longer, if this can be done without upsetting the design - .200" increase would be satisfactory. Will you please let us hear further on this point.

Yours faithfully,

FOR ROLLS ROYCE LIMITED.
