| (Experimental Dept.) Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}7/R.{Sir Henry Royce} 19th January, 1937. M.{Mr Moon / Mr Moore} Wilks, Esq., The Rover Company Ltd., New Meteor Works, COVENTRY. Dear Wilks, Thank you so much for the interesting time you gave me at the Factory yesterday. One of our Works' engineers is particularly anxious to go over to Standards to study their costing methods, and I wonder whether you know anybody in this Factory with whom he could contact. I myself do not know anyone at Standards. I apologise for leaving the brake parts behind; these have now safely arrived. We are dealing with the exhaust valve. Yours sincerely, | ||
