VISUAL DESCRIPTION
Vintage advertisement for the "Sydney" flying boat, highlighting its status as the largest military monoplane flying boat. The ad boasts about the aircraft's impressive features such as its five 525 horsepower Rolls Royce engines and emphasizes that these engines are lubricated with Dick's "110" oil. The text also notes that this oil has received full approval by both the British Admiralty and Air Ministry due to its high quality and stability, which ensures freedom from gumming and acid corrosion—key factors in maintaining engine reliability. At the bottom of the ad is information about W. B. Dick & Co. Ltd. , including their address at 26 Grosvenor Gardens, London S. W. 1. , along with other locations where they operate across Great Britain. The image shows a side view of the large seaplane moored on water, suggesting its readiness for military service or long-distance flights over seas or oceans.
