Dear Robotham,

In our last conversation you said you thought the Winch drawings would be ready in a month from now, or at least they are pretty well ready now. I have been moved on to a new job and so am unfortunately unable to come and see you. I would much like to come but am extremely busy at the moment.

I am writing to my successor at Thruxton to ask him to go to see, as I was going to do so. In any case to see those drawings.

I am very much interested in your Winch and hope it will be a success.

Yours sincerely

Munro Bustus

Wing Commander, Commanding Maintenance Wing,
R.A.F., Church Fenton, Yorks.

Wm. Robotham, Esq.,
Rolls Royce Ltd.,
Belper,
Derbyshire.
