Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from R.{Sir Henry Royce} c. to BJ. Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} +7090 R3/M19.9.28. EAC.10. X.7770 X.7090 The engine unit as tested seems quite good, enough to go kax into a chassis, which is so urgently needed. Therefore there is no need for delay. The second or third unit can be carried ôt greater perfection, and await modifications to camshaft etc. R.{Sir Henry Royce} | ||
