We would like finally to emphasize the fact that the production of these gears has extended over a far longer period than we anticipated would be the case. Cannot the matter be pressed forward rather more quickly as we are afraid if this is so the information desired will be arrived at by oursleves rather late in the day. We remain, Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS ROYCE LIMITED. CHIEF TECHNICAL PRODUCTION ENGINEER | ||
