VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage advertisement for the Bristol Jupiter Aircooled Radial Aero Engine, boasting 400 horsepower. The ad highlights the engine's reliability and low weight per horsepower, making it simple to operate and maintain. It features an image of the radial engine at its center with nine cylinders arranged in a circular pattern, typical of air-cooled radial engines from that era. The text on the right side proclaims "A Record Performance, " detailing how the Jupiter Engine has completed an endurance test of 150 hours duration at 90% full power under official supervision, including a non-stop run of 50 hours. This feat is touted as possibly constituting "a world's record" for this type of aviation engine. At the bottom left corner, there are contact details for The Bristol Aeroplane Co. , Ltd. , located in Filton - Bristol, along with telephone numbers. The date mentioned in a quote from "Flight" magazine is April 26th, 1923. Overall, this advertisement reflects early twentieth-century advancements in aviation technology and marketing strategies used by aircraft manufacturers like Bristol Aeroplane Company to promote their products' performance capabilities and reliability to potential customers or partners within the aerospace industry.
