VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This image features a vintage advertisement for "Blind Flying Instruments" by Sperry. The ad showcases two essential aviation instruments: the Horizon and the Directional Gyro, which are critical for instrument flight rules (IFR) where pilots fly primarily by reference to instruments rather than by outside visual cues. The text in the advertisement emphasizes that "It is universally agreed that Sperry instruments are the solution to the blind flying problem, " suggesting a strong confidence in their product's ability to aid pilots during low-visibility conditions. It also boasts of having over 40, 000 units in use at the time of this publication. At the bottom, it states these products are "British made throughout, " indicating they were manufactured entirely within Britain. Additional information provided includes contact details for "The Sperry Gyroscope Company Ltd. " located on Great West Road, Brentford, Middlesex with a telephone number listed as well. Overall, this ad reflects historical advancements in avionics technology and marketing strategies from an era when such innovations significantly improved flight safety and navigation capabilities.
