| X1066 W/S - C. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}7/KW.14.6.35. C.30/C.13.6.35. The Packard we want I presume is about £500 in England. It is known as the "One-Twenty" model. The Terraplane is being used on Aero transport work and we should therefore like to have the Graham back to replace it before we send it to Lillie Hall to be disposed of. Can you give us any indication as to when you are likely to have finished with the Graham ? Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} | ||
