VISUAL DESCRIPTION
In this third advertisement from Short Brothers (Rochester & Bedford) Ltd., we see an emphasis on practical demonstrations of capability; it states that 'Calcutta' is "the first all-metal commercial flying-boat" by British lines capable of accommodating up to fifteen passengers plus cargo. A notable achievement mentioned is its ability to take off fully laden even against strong headwinds—testament to engineering prowess back then. This advert serves not only as marketing material but also as evidence documenting early achievements in civil aviation technology.
