To add a little more interest a photo of what seems to be a very rarely photographed aircraft, you will all know what it is ? What I find so nice is that it is recorded simply as american at Shaibah

It’s an amazing depth of knowledge that you kind people have, thank you !
A couple for tonight, also at Shaibah, the Viceroy of India’s aircraft, Lord Willingdon, note the same fueling rig again ! this is February 1935.

Thank you all once again for your input, I have tried to read serials etc from what I have, but no luck ! As for high res versions, this may happen ? but at a later date ??
I am rapidly running out of photos to post ! but have, in my opinion, saved the best till last ! You may not agree ? I think the photo below is the best of the bunch, just love it !
Is the ‘rig’ on the ground a manual fuel pump, lovely iron wheels ! as this is Shaibah, was fuel delivered in cans and pumped by this device into wing tanks ? this ‘rig’ shows up in another photo to come ?
What is the man at the upper wing engine doing, topping up the oil ? is there a square can of fuel/oil on top of the fuselage ?
Which flags are they ? this is strange I am asking questions ? enjoy ! Keith.
