VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage advertisement featuring Westland Lysander aircraft dropping supplies to the besieged garrison at Calais in June 1940 during World War II. The image captures multiple planes flying low, with parachutes deploying from their undersides as they deliver essential items to the troops below. The dramatic scene emphasizes the bravery and strategic importance of these supply missions under hostile conditions. The bold text "WESTLAND" anchors the bottom of the ad, highlighting the manufacturer's contribution to wartime efforts, while smaller text provides context for the depicted event and underscores Westland Aircraft Limited's role in supporting Allied forces.
