GOSHAWK(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine)) 11.

I propose bringing 6-Goshawk(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine))-11 to W.W., to arrive there on Wednesday the 16th.inst.

I should very much like to get your views on the steering before I leave with 4-Goshawk(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine))-11.

The works are now actually erecting the first production chassis, so that it is necessary to decide the best compromise to make with those cars.
