VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage advertisement for Reid & Sigrist Ltd. , showcasing one of their precision instruments. The ad features an illustration of a finely detailed turn and slip indicator, which is an essential flight instrument used in aviation to inform the pilot about the aircraft's rate of turn and coordination during flight. The gauge has markings for left and right turns with a ball-in-tube inclinometer at its center to indicate balance or slip. Text on the image highlights that these instruments were supplied to the Air Ministry and the Admiralty, indicating their use in military applications. Below the instrument illustration, bold text displays "REID & SIGRIST LTD. " along with an address located at Shannon Corner, Kingston By-Pass, New Malden. A note indicates that this advertisement was published in "Flight" magazine on August 21st, 1941, placing it within the context of World War II when such precision instruments would have been critical for air combat and navigation.
