VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is an advertisement for Vickers Limited, highlighting "The Long Distance Flights" accomplished in 1919 and 1920 by British aircraft with British engines. The ad boasts the historic achievements of aviation, featuring the Vickers "Vimy" aircraft powered by Rolls-Royce "Eagle" engines. There are four black-and-white photos showcasing different milestones: 1. The first direct flight across the Atlantic Ocean from June 14-15, 1919. 2. The first airplane to fly from Great Britain to Australia between November 12 and December 10, 1920. 3. An image of a Vickers Vimy biplane registered as G-EAAV. 4. A photo of another pioneering flight, this time from England to South Africa between February and March of an unspecified year. Below these images is further information about where one can find out more about Vickers' products: at their offices on Broadway in London or at their works in Weybridge, Surrey. The text emphasizes that these feats remain unsurpassed among historical aviation accomplishments and promotes pride in British engineering prowess during the early days of long-distance air travel.
