VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage advertisement for the Desoutter Aircraft Company, highlighting their achievements and promoting the safety and unique features of their light aeroplanes. The ad lists several notable accomplishments such as selling forty aircraft in the second year of operation, being chosen by 20 operating companies, exporting to countries like Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Belgium, Denmark, Hungary, South Africa and Holland. It also mentions that all Desoutter Aeroplanes have an Air Ministry Certificate. The ad boasts about specific events such as winning first prize for speed at an International Meeting in September 1930 and being the first light cabin machine to fly from England to Australia with a crew of two. Additionally mentioned are records like flying over 300, 000 miles without any passengers needing to wear parachutes or sustaining injuries. Attractive qualities highlighted include stability on turns or spirals; extremely good view; large luggage space; low running costs due to fuel efficiency; and reliability backed by no engine failures reported among engines made by Cirrus Engines Ltd. , which powers these aircraft. The company's contact information is provided at the bottom: "DESOUTTER AIRCRAFT CO. , LTD. , Croydon Aerodrome, Surrey. " A graphic representation of a globe with airplanes circling it emphasizes global reach and success.
