VISUAL DESCRIPTION
The image shows a vintage advertisement for the Miles Aerovan aircraft, emphasizing its cargo capacity and efficiency. The text on the ad boasts "1-7 cubic feet of cargo capacity for every horse power, " highlighting the plane's ability to carry substantial freight relative to its engine power. With 130 B. H. P. , it claims an impressive cargo capacity of 530 cubic feet and a high ratio of available load per horsepower. The advertisement underscores the versatility of the Aerovan, suggesting it can be rapidly adapted for different uses such as passenger service, air ambulance, mobile theatre or showroom, flying caravan (likely meaning a small travel trailer), or work-shop. It also points out performance specifications like cruising speed (112 m. p. h. ), range (400 miles), take-off distance (900 yards), and selling price (£5, 000 with delivery in six months). In addition to these details about performance and utility, there is an image showing the twin-engine aircraft with registration G-AGIZ parked on tarmac with one propeller visible and what appears to be either loading or unloading activity at its rear door. The tail section is distinctive with twin booms extending back from mid-fuselage supporting horizontal stabilizers. At the bottom of this black-and-white advertisement are bold letters spelling "MILES AEROVAN" followed by smaller print that reads "MILES AIRCRAFT LTD. , READING - ENGLAND, " indicating both the model name and manufacturer based in Reading, England.
