Never seen a left hook Humber before....  ???

At first i thought the negitive was back to front, but the dials look correct. Did they export Humbers, because that might be the only one.  :cup:

would have at a guess fuel, the navigators job was also to keep the fuel pumped up. I once read this somewhere.
