To Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} re Mr.Fedden. Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}30/E25.4.35
B-189-AE.

Thanks for Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}10/KW.18.4.35. I have written him as per the attached copy.

I have not mentioned the higher compression head because Fedden has never really complained to me about performance and I think it would be best for us to keep clear of giving him something different from standard.

He is, as we know, rather fussy and not sporting like Fairey.
