VISUAL DESCRIPTION
The image is a vintage advertisement for the Percival Prince aircraft, indicating that it is now in production. The black-and-white photo features the aircraft in flight above a layer of clouds, suggesting its capability to fly at high altitudes. Below the image, text highlights key selling points of the Percival Prince: it's marketed as a new 8-10 seater medium transport plane offering exceptional passenger comfort and high performance with economical operation. It boasts two 550 hp Alvis Leonides engines and promises room for eight passengers along with 400 lbs. of luggage. The ad notes that this aircraft has an impressive still-air range of 800 miles. At the bottom, "PERCIVAL AIRCRAFT LIMITED" is prominently displayed, identifying the manufacturer and noting that it's one of the Hunting Group of Companies based in Luton, Bedfordshire, England while also having ties to Toronto, Canada. The overall tone conveys pride in British engineering and aviation capabilities during what appears to be from around mid-20th century given by design elements typical for advertisements from that era.
