We are anxious therefore at the Works to hear from you as to what are the vital features and weaknesses on 5 Goshawk II which you think will have to be done on the above lines, so that as far as possible analysis, investigation and altered design can be obtained and the job actually fixed up on 6 Goshawk II so that the improvement can be established and settled when the meeting takes place at La{L. A. Archer} Canadel.

We are also anxious to hear further from you in regard to the clutch brakes, which in your last report you stated were very unsatisfactory, but which Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} reports are very satisfactory.

EP.{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer}
