VISUAL DESCRIPTION
In this third advertisement from the era when air racing captured public imagination worldwide, we see accolades given to Scott and Guthrie for their victory in England-South Africa Air Race aboard a Percival "Vega Gull" equipped with a D.H. Gipsy VI engine—an advanced powerplant for its time which contributed significantly to their success. The Vega Gull's robust performance is lauded through excerpts from congratulatory telegrams sent via Cable & Wireless Limited; it’s clear that communication technology played an essential role in connecting aviators with supporters across continents during these daring competitions.
