VISUAL DESCRIPTION
The image is a black and white advertisement for the Brooklands School of Flying, located in Byfleet, Surrey. The ad promises a better bid for one's machine at Brooklands and highlights various services offered by the school: 1. It encourages readers to become owner pilots at the lowest possible cost with efficient instruction from experienced staff who are specialists in teaching owners. 2. There's mention of service after sales, including repairs on customer aircraft. 3. The shop offers extensive workshops for overhauls and repairs to all types and makes of aircraft. 4. Special charter flights are available with faster solo times achievable at lower rates than elsewhere. 5. First-class tuition is provided without subscription fees; since 30 pupils have qualified to date, it suggests that individual attention during training pays off. Notably mentioned instructors include H. J. Davis, Chief Instructor & Director; E. A. Weston; M. C. ; R. V. King; C. M. H. Perrin; A. R. Oepts. The ad also states that no flying experience is required before joining their course and invites interested individuals to write or phone them (with contact details provided) for a trial lesson costing £1 Sterling. At the bottom part of the ad there's practical information about how to reach the location: "Byfleet Aerodrome is twenty minutes from Waterloo Station—trains every hour. " This advertisement seems targeted towards prospective pilots looking for comprehensive flight training services as well as those seeking maintenance support for their aircrafts during an era when aviation was still quite novel and rapidly developing.
