SpectreCodename for Phantom III Rear Axle Casing.

Herewith is N.Sch. 4270 showing the modified boss and level plug for use on the LH{Mr Haworth} side of axle centre casing. Due to the closeness of the nut on the crown wheel the type of internal boss used on the RH{R. Hollingworth} side is not suitable.

Experimental Dept. will perhaps choose between the forward and rearward position of the plug.
