| To By.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} c. to Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} 1263. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/JBD.{John B. Dixon - Fuel Systems}1/JH.2.9.37. Phantom III. Can we please have a scheme detailed to carry the petrol pipe through the dash. The attached sketch shows a suggestion which will mount the pipe in rubber for silence and also form an effective seal to prevent petrol leaking back into the sea pack when the flexible joint is broken.
