VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage black and white advertisement or informational image featuring the Fairey aviation company's aircraft. The caption on the image reads "FAIREY FIRST IN THE WORLD TO FLY WITH VARIABLE PITCH CONTRA ROTATING AIRSCREWS". The photograph showcases the front profile of an aircraft with its distinctive contra-rotating propellers, which are sets of two coaxial propellers that rotate in opposite directions. This technology was innovative at the time for improving performance and efficiency. The background appears to be an airfield, indicative of the era when such technological advancements were groundbreaking in aviation history.
