VISUAL DESCRIPTION
The image is a vintage advertisement featuring the Vickers "Wellington" long-range bombers. The photograph shows three Wellington aircraft in flight formation, with one prominently displayed in the foreground and two others following behind at higher altitudes. Below the image, there's text that reads: "Vickers 'WELLINGTON' Long Range Bombers are reported as having participated in the successful raid carried out by The Royal Air Force on military objectives at Sylt, 20-3-1940. " This refers to an operation during World War II where these bombers were used by the RAF. At the bottom of the advertisement is bold lettering stating "VICKERS-ARMSTRONGS LIMITED AVIATION WORKS AT WEYBRIDGE AND SUPERMARINE WORKS, SOUTHAMPTON. " This indicates that Vickers-Armstrongs Limited was responsible for manufacturing these aircraft and highlights their aviation works locations in Weybridge and Southampton.
