VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is an advertisement for the Carden 30 H. P. light aero engine, featuring an image of Mr. S. V. Appleby's Carden-engined British Pou aircraft in flight. The ad highlights several achievements of this particular model: it was the first to fly in Great Britain on July 14th, 1935; the first to carry out a cross-country flight on November 9th, 1935; and notably, it was the first British machine of its type to cross the English Channel on December 5th, 1935. The text encourages potential customers to "ENSURE EQUAL SUCCESS FOR YOUR NEW BABY PLANE" by choosing the Carden engine for its proven design at an affordable price point equivalent to that of a two-cylinder engine despite being a more robust four-cylinder one. It emphasizes absolute reliability and negligible maintenance cost while mentioning that most renewable parts such as pistons, valves, etc. , are standard Ford components readily available at reasonable prices. The price listed is £51-10-0 complete with airscrew hub (with dual ignition costing £3-10-0 extra). The advertisement also includes contact information for Carden Aero Engines located at Heston Airport in Middlesex with a phone number provided (Hounslow 2345) for interested parties to make inquiries or purchases.
