VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage advertisement for the Bristol Pegasus, an aircraft engine manufactured by The Bristol Aeroplane Company. The ad features bold text stating "OVER MT. EVEREST ANOTHER TRIUMPH FOR THE 'Bristol' PEGASUS. " It depicts a biplane flying over the snow-capped peaks of Mount Everest, symbolizing the engine's capability to perform at high altitudes and under extreme conditions. The bottom left corner includes smaller text that reads: "First Aero Engine in History to fly over Mt. Everest - A World Record!" This suggests that an aircraft equipped with this engine achieved a significant milestone by flying over the world's highest mountain. On the right side, there is a testimonial quote from Flt. Lt. D. F. McIntyre which says: "Sincere congratulations & heartfelt thanks from all for splendid engines — Fellowes. " Below this quote is an intricate illustration of the radial engine itself, showcasing its design and complexity. At the very bottom of the ad, we find information about The Bristol Aeroplane Company Limited with their location at Filton House, Filton, Bristol. This advertisement likely dates back to around 1933 when such flights were conducted as part of aviation history-making events and technological demonstrations during that era.
