Mr. W. A.{Mr Adams} Robotham

Dear Mr. Robotham:

I am sending herewith enclosed two blueprints, F-30398 and R-30157, which we have found, showing a typical test house unit in more complete detail than the factory layout which I showed you the day you were here. I presume these will be more useful to you than the other.

They were made up with the purpose of recommending a test house for the Canadian Pratt & Whitney and various overhaul stations and are typical of the units which we use.

I hope they will serve to give you the information you desired.

Very truly yours


A.{Mr Adams} WILLGOOS
