VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage advertisement for the Blackburn Iris, an aircraft produced by the British manufacturer Blackburn Aeroplane & Motor Company. The image features a biplane in flight with clouds in the background, emphasizing its capability and performance. The text below the plane reads: "The pilot flew successfully on the various combinations of three engines. First he flew with a starboard engine stopped. Later he stopped his centre engine (a proceeding to which any machine of the 'three-engines' type will be prone). With one of these engines stopped the machine was able to gain height. " The ad highlights that even if one or more engines were disabled, this aircraft could still operate effectively—a testament to its reliability and advanced design for its time. At the bottom are details about where interested parties can contact or visit: "London Office: AMBERLEY HOUSE, NORFOLK ST. , STRAND, W. C. 2 Telephone Central 7522. " It also includes locations related to Blackburn's operations such as Olympia and Leeds in England. The overall impression given by this advertisement is one of confidence in their product's robustness and safety features during an era when aviation technology was rapidly advancing.
