PRITCHETT YOUR REF OUR REF M {Mr Moon / Mr Moore} /S. 5th February 1930. Messrs. Rolls Royce Ltd., DERBY. Dear Sirs, We have yours of the 31st January, EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} 2/AD, and note that you are going to try the vent on the 10,000 mile test. The vent will probably remain more or less undisturbed during this time and if you could arrange some other test where it is screwed in and out frequently, it would perhaps give you more valuable information. Yours faithfully, PETO & RADFORD. GRNMinchin | ||
