VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage advertisement for Westland Aircraft, emphasizing the importance of safety in aviation. The headline asks, "What is safety worth to You, as operator or private owner. . . " suggesting that the reader should consider the value they place on safety when operating or owning an aircraft. The main image shows a biplane in flight over a calm body of water with clouds in the background, illustrating the aircraft's capability and reliability. Below this image are two smaller insets: one depicting men working on an airplane wing to illustrate meticulous construction and maintenance; another showing a man possibly conducting design calculations or inspections, highlighting attention to detail and engineering expertise. The text accompanying the images promotes the Westland "Widgeon, " describing it as safe and reliable due to its features like easy control even at low speeds and stability during strong winds because of its automatic slot equipment which balances lift forces upward if it goes down too fast. It also mentions that this model is powered by a 7-cylinder Armstrong Siddeley Genet Major engine. Finally, there's an endorsement of Westland Aircraft Works' reputation for quality manufacturing located in Yeovil, Somerset, England. The tagline sums up their selling proposition: "Speed with Safety and Comfort. "
