Fedden, Esq., The Bristol Aeroplane Co.Ltd., Filton House, Bristol. Dear Fedden, Thank you for your letter of April 8th. We note that you can let us have the car on April 29th, and we shall be ready for it. You say ".... the work at Derby to be followed by modifications to the body and mudguards". I take it that you still want us to do the best we can with the cycle type front wings at Derby and are not proposing to have these removed for the time being; presumably your remarks refer to the rear wings or some other modifications. I am afraid we have no Experimental car we can lend you while yours is being modified. I have mentioned the fact that you would like to borrow a car to Mr. Sidgreaves, however, in case there should be one available in London. Yours sincerely, | ||
