The Huck starter was also a standard equipment with the Belgian Air Force before 1940.See also the pictures of Stampe SV-4 CG-OMD.

The 'Hucks Starter' is news to me; some of our veterans may remember hearing of them years ago. Quite an impressive feat of genius, engineering and machining. http://www.vintagewings.ca/VintageNews/Stories/tabid/116/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/381/language/en-CA/The-Moment--First-Hucks-Start-in-70-Years.aspx
There is now a working model at Vintage Wings of Canada.
