Opinions

DURFEE, Judge.

Plaintiff, a corporation engaged in the operation of concessions at various airports, entered into a contract on October 6,1957 with defendant, by which plaintiff was granted a concession to operate an automobile parking business at the Washington National Airport. This airport was operated by defendant through its agency, the Civil Aeronautics Administration.

Plaintiff brought this suit to recover damages alleging that defendant breached the contract by installing, without plaintiff’s consent, a number of parking meters on streets of the airport; thereby breaching an implied warranty not to substantially alter the pre-existing factual basis under which plaintiff entered into the contract.

[975]*975Defendant’s Invitation to Bid stated in part:

“ * •» * ipim government will furnish to the concessionaire the ground space known as Areas 1, 6, 7, 8 and Official, as shown on Exhibit No. 1 attached to the Form of Agreement.”

Exhibit No. 1 was a map of the airport showing, among other things, the specific location of the numbered and described parking areas, and also the location of certain employee parking areas. At this time Areas 1, 6, 7 and 8 were the only parking places (other than 62 metered spaces) that were available to the general public for the parking of automobiles.

The aforesaid invitation was accompanied by a “Data Sheet,” a copy of the proposed agreement, and a form upon which to submit proposals. The Data Sheet read as follows:
