X.4043 RE "BUZZARD(Aero Engine)" FRAME.

RECEIVED 6 MAY 1920

In reply to your memo DA {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} 2/CB3/5/20, kindly note it has been necessary to make some further modifications to the rear portion of the "Buzzard(Aero Engine)" frame. The depth will now be 7½" instead of 7".

We hope to send you a drawing very shortly so that you may complete the necessary information for ordering the dies.

E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer}
