VISUAL DESCRIPTION
The image is a vintage advertisement for the first "Southampton" seaplane to be fitted with an all-metal hull and floats, produced by Supermarine Aviation Works Ltd. , based in Southampton, England. The text highlights the advantages of using metal over wood, such as being lighter by 500 lbs and avoiding water soakage which further reduces weight. It also mentions that this reduction in weight could either extend the aircraft's range by 200 miles or allow it to carry six additional passengers on commercial flights. The company logo appears at the bottom left corner along with their title, emphasizing their brand identity and engineering capabilities during that era.
