This is amongst photographs from my grandfather F W Cook. It is copyrighted RAF Official. I am assuming it was taken in Iraq around 1930 when my grandfather was with No 30 Squadron. I see him being a passenger in a Wapiti, unfortunately and unusually he doesn't give the serial number. I can't make him out in this photograph but obviously something interesting is going on.
