RE "GOSHAWK II" BONNET AND TOP RADIATOR SUPPORT.

We send you herewith drawings Nos. LeC.1400/1 shewing the above.

Would you kindly note, however, that the form of the bonnet clip is undecided, and a further scheme will be sent dealing with this point. The outline of the dashboard as given on these schemes is O.K., but its actual design has yet to be definitely settled by Mr. Royce, and will be dealt with in a further scheme.

E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer}
