VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage advertisement for Smith's Aircraft Instruments, featuring their "Husun" Aperiodic Compass as part of the equipment. The ad showcases three different aircraft models: 1. At the top, there's an illustration of the Miles "Falcon" (Gipsy VI Engine). 2. In the middle, we see the Miles "Hawk" Trainer (Gipsy Major Engine) with registration G-ADLB. 3. At the bottom, another variant of the Miles "Hawk, " specifically the M. 5 model (Gipsy Major Engine), with registration G-AUNI. The text emphasizes that these instruments are fitted by Phillips & Powis Aircraft Ltd. , and they are standard equipment in their planes. The company address is given as Cricklewood Works, London, N. W. 2 along with a telephone number: Gladstone 3331. The logo at the top features two wings flanking a clock gear motif with “Smith’s” written across it—symbolizing flight and precision engineering associated with timepieces and instrumentation. Overall, this image captures a piece of aviation history highlighting technology and design from an era when air travel was becoming increasingly important and sophisticated instrumentation was essential for navigation and safety in flight operations.
