This is a vintage advertisement for the G. Q. Parachute Co. Ltd. , highlighting their "Fast Aircraft and G. Q. Parachutes. " The ad specifies that orders are being placed for the latest type of Aircrew Parachute, known as the Mark 3 (White Canopy) and Mark 3A (Yellow Canopy) Back Type parachutes, with reference numbers listed. The parachute was designed at the Royal Aircraft Establishment in Farnborough and adopted by the R. A. F. , noted for high-speed deployment with aircraft such as Attacker, Meteor, Wyvern, and Sea Hawk. There's also a mention of the G. Q. Design Type "Z" Aircrew Safety Harness which can be attached to these parachutes. The image shows illustrations of fast military aircraft at the top and an actual photo or illustration of a back-type parachute on the right side along with details about its integration with Martin Baker Ejection Seat Mk.
