In view of the amount of work in the experimental dept. it will be at least two to three weeks before we can deal with Professor Dodds' car. We do not feel that this time will be altogether wasted, because Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. has submitted a plug to Professor Dodds for which we should like to get an opinion before we change his engine. The changeover will take 3 to 4 days. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
