| NEW 40 HP (VULTURE(Experimental 6 CYL OHV LONG STROKE / Aero Engine)) GENESIS OF R.ENG. ORIGINAL To HS. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from R. {Sir Henry Royce} Copy to CJ. x3481 x3548 R9/G9/6/21. RE "GOSHAWK(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine)) I". As soon as ever it is convenient I am anxious to see "Goshawk(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine)) I", so as to settle our policy as regards the "Vulture(Experimental 6 CYL OHV LONG STROKE / Aero Engine)". The point is, whether it is to be like "Goshawk(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine)) I" or "Goshawk(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine)) II" in the system of building.
