I checked this morning. Yes I have what you want. Fig 1. is actually a diagram of how a sextant works. I have both the simple Air Publication for Air Navigators and the clever one for instrument technicians. I'll photograph them as soon as I get chance to seperate them and lie them flat. I'll need nice a sunny day to impove contrast and allow minimum bytes. It'll be a number of pages. Veni. Vidi. Photi. DaveP

It was nice and sunny this morning so I was able to catch up with that photography. Attached is the chapter from AP1234, the text book issued to RAF & RCAF Navigators.
