VISUAL DESCRIPTION
The black-and-white photograph captures a moment from aviation history where a technician uses a portable dope spraying machine on Major Miller's Percival Mew Gull aircraft before an air race from Portsmouth to Johannesburg. Dope here refers to a lacquer applied to fabric-covered aircraft parts for tightening and protection purposes—not illicit substances! The text below emphasizes that this method is five times faster than brushing by hand, showcasing technological advancements aimed at improving efficiency in aircraft maintenance.
