VISUAL DESCRIPTION
The image is a vintage advertisement or informational poster for the "FAIREY 17, " an aircraft ordered by the Royal Navy. The text at the top reads "Ordered for the Royal Navy, " indicating that this model of aircraft was specifically commissioned by the British naval forces. Below this statement, in bold and larger font, is "THE FAIREY 17, " which is presumably the name or designation of the aircraft being advertised. This suggests that it's part of a series or brand known as Fairey, which was likely well-known within aviation circles at that time. The description beneath states "TWIN-ENGINED" followed by " (Armstrong Siddeley 'Double Mamba'), " suggesting that this particular model features two engines made by Armstrong Siddeley under their Double Mamba line. These details would be important to potential customers or interested parties who are knowledgeable about aircraft engineering and performance specifications. Further characteristics listed include "ANTI-SUBMARINE" and "CARRIER-OPERATED. " These terms indicate that the Fairey 17 was designed with anti-submarine warfare capabilities in mind and could be operated from an aircraft carrier, making it suitable for naval operations where such versatility would be crucial. At the bottom of the page, we see “THE FAIREY AVIATION COMPANY LTD HAYES, MIDDLESEX, ” identifying both the manufacturer responsible for producing these planes (The Fairey Aviation Company Limited) and its location (Hayes, Middlesex). Decorating each side of this textual content are repeated motifs resembling military insignia or badges featuring wings—commonly associated with air force emblems—which adds to its martial theme and underscores its intended use in military service.
