VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage advertisement featuring the Saunders-Roe SR. A/1, which is described as "The world's first jet-propelled fighter flying boat powered by two Metropolitan-Vickers 'Beryl' axial flow units. " The aircraft is shown in flight over water, with its sleek design and distinctive twin-jet engines mounted on top of its fuselage. Below the image of the aircraft, there's an illustration of one of the Metropolitan-Vickers 'Beryl' engines that power it. The text emphasizes that this innovative plane was supplied to the Royal Air Force. The company behind this engineering feat, Saunders-Roe Limited along with Metropolitan-Vickers Electrical Co. Ltd. , are mentioned at the bottom with their respective addresses in Osborne and Manchester, indicating their British origins. Photography credit is given to Charles E Brown for capturing the image of this pioneering military seaplane.
