Rolls-Royce Ltd., Derby. Dear Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}, I acknowledge receipt of your telegram with regard to the front pan for the Myth, and would advise you that it is not possible to complete this by Monday as suggested. The remainder of the drawings incidentally were not received by us until about the 12th inst., and in view of the amount of work required and the fact that the necessary Jig has to be produced it will be something like four weeks for completion from the date of receipt of the drawings. Yours sincerely, [Signature] (C.W.Ward) | ||
