-2- Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}6/R.27.5.39. (8) Silver Ripple. We expect to have completed a French run on this car before the Motor Show. (9) Rationalised Programme. Our main interest in any discussion on this subject is whether the production schedule recommended in Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}4/R.{Sir Henry Royce} 18.5.39. is accepted, or, if not, what are the proposals for utilising the work done ? (10) Development of interior, heating and ventilation. We understand that it is not proposed to market the B.V. with a heater as standardised equipment. Is this correct ?
