Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/C1m.10/MH{M. Huckerby} Our Ref. JNL/KM Messrs. Rolls Royce Ltd., Experimental Dept., Derby. For the attention of Mr. W. A.{Mr Adams} Robotham. Dear Sirs, We thank you for your letter of the 5th of March suggesting that Mr. Clapham should visit us sometime next week to discuss the question of spring interleaving. We confirm that Monday, the 11th of March, at 11 a.m. is the most convenient time for the writer to see Mr. Clapham and we shall be glad to know if this is convenient. We have been rather a long time producing this VG.90 type, but in point of fact yesterday afternoon we finished off what we believe to be satisfactory samples. Unfortunately these will not be available in the full lengths you require for the four complete sets mentioned in earlier correspondence but they will serve as a basis for discussion on Monday, Yours faithfully, FERODO LIMITED Wongley Director. | ||
