| Roy{Sir Henry Royce}/Dn9/ME. TS/AMS/LP.{Mr Lappin} 10th September 1937. Messrs. Rolls-Royce Ltd., DERBY. For the attention of Mr. H.{Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} Royce. Dear Sirs, Re Order No.47667. We have to acknowledge receipt of your esteemed letter of the 8th instant enclosing blue prints Nos.G.85593/9, G.85574, G.85573, G.85601, G.85602, G.85570, and G.85567, covering detail parts of our 13½" Driven Plates which are being supplied for the Phantom III application, for which please accept our thanks. Upon perusal of these drawings we find that there are several points which we feel essential to raise and venture to suggest that this matter may be taken up with Mr. Chandler when he visits these Works in the course of the next few days to see tests carried out on some friction facings. Yours faithfully, BORG & BECK COMPANY LIMITED. A.M.Shinkins. | ||
