| 1245 D/BP. from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Engine Unit B.16. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}2/R.23.12.37. With reference to D/BP/WK13/JR.{Mr James Royce}22.12.37., no official statement was ever made that F.B.A. would not have to pay for their spare engine unit. Obviously it will be charged at a reduced figure because it is not a standard engine. Naturally, Paris should bear the expense of transport, etc. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
