6001b Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Wst.6/JH. 30th December, 1936. Messrs. K.L.G. Sparking Plugs, Putney Vale, London.S.W.15. Dear Sirs, We regret to say that up to the time of writing this letter we have not yet received any MX{John H Maddocks - Chief Proving Officer}3/A terminals as promised by Mr. Brereton. 2 sets of these are most urgently required, and it is quite likely that if you sent any off recently, they have become delayed due to the Christmas post. We shall be glad therefore if you will arrange to get some more away as quickly as possible. We should like to know the difference between the 935 platinum pointed plug used by Messrs. Napier and the 943 which we are at the moment experimentally testing out. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
