VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This vintage advertisement showcases the Bendix brakes and wheels for airplanes, emphasizing their advanced technology for the era. The ad highlights features such as "Servo" Brakes, which were considered a modern development in airplane control. It boasts about the lightweight yet robust design of these landing wheels and claims to minimize runway distance after landing, making them suitable for small airfields. The ad also points out that their system eliminates the need for ground crews by allowing aircraft to be warmed up, taxied, and parked without external assistance—a significant innovation at that time. Additionally, it promotes perfect ground control when operated separately and mentions compatibility with tail wheels instead of skids to prevent damage to airfields. Interested parties are invited to visit the Bendix Stand at an Aero Exhibition in Olympia from July 16-27 presumably of a past year not specified here but likely around or before 1929 given the style of illustration.
