VISUAL DESCRIPTION
The image is an illustration from another vintage advertisement by The General Electric Co. Ltd., highlighting the use of G.E.C Heavy Alloy for mass balancing critical components in aviation, such as ailerons and rudders. It explains how due to its high density, this alloy is ideal where space is limited but balance is essential—demonstrating an understanding of material science and engineering needs relevant at that time. The diagram within shows a typical system used for balancing control surfaces on aircraft wings, indicating how small weight adjustments can have significant impacts on performance.
