VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage advertisement introducing the Aerocar Series, highlighting its features and specifications. The caption could read: "Vintage Advertisement: Introducing The Aerocar Series by Portsmouth Aviation Limited - A Glimpse into Aviation History" The ad boasts airline comfort in a small twin-engine aircraft with variable-pitch propellers, retractable pneumatic tricycle undercarriage, excellent visibility, easy access, full utility, high cruising speed and low operating costs. It details technical specs like span size (42ft. ), length (25 ft. ), height on nose wheel (6 ft. 3 in. ), as well as performance metrics such as maximum speed (165 mph), initial rate of climb (1, 180 ft. per minute), take-off run (350 yards) and braked landing run. It also compares the Major model equipped with two Cirrus Major 150 B. H. P engines to the Minor and Junior models powered by Cirrus Minor 100 B. H. P engines or de-rated versions thereof. The advertisement underscores availability for various uses including ski or sea planes and encourages inquiries through provided contact information for Portsmouth Aviation Limited at The Airport - Portsmouth. Note: This image appears to be from an era when aviation technology was rapidly evolving; thus it provides historical insight into aircraft marketing during that time period.
