VISUAL DESCRIPTION
The image appears identical to Image 3; hence my description remains consistent: This classic advertisement commemorates H.F. Broadbent’s remarkable accomplishment in setting an expedited transit time between Australia and England using another variant from Percival’s line-up—the Vega Gull airplane—achieving it within five days and five hours which was faster than prior records including one held by Jean Batten also achieved on board one of Percival’s planes (a different model). By repeating their slogan “IT TAKES A ‘GULL’ TO BEAT A ‘GULL’”, they reinforce brand strength through consistency in breaking barriers within aerial navigation milestones.
