| 1345 Long file. Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /AA. {D. Abbot Anderson} 2/B. 15th February, 1940. R. {Sir Henry Royce} H. {Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} S. Buckle, Esq., Rolls-Royce Representative, R.A.F. Station, HORNCHURCH, Essex. Dear Dick, Very many thanks for yours of the 13th inst. together with the letter from The Vauxhall Motors Ltd. I will get in direct communication with these people. Last week, Kenneth got up and snorted - in other words, he stood up for himself for once and was absolutely staggered when everyone agreed with him. He has got his way and is doing a fortnight at HawkAero Engineers, Brooklands. He then proceeds to Supermarines and Boulton Paul for a fortnight with each of them. I am very glad because he will be much happier away from here. Once again many thanks. Yours ever, (D.G.Abbot-Anderson). | ||
