VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This vintage advertisement celebrates the Comper Swift, a light aircraft renowned for its remarkable achievement of being the first to cross the Andes in South America. The ad features an illustration of the plane soaring above mountainous terrain, emphasizing its capability to tackle challenging environments. With a Pobjoy engine and single-seater design, this aircraft was marketed not only for its adventurous feats but also as a symbol of British engineering prowess during an era when aviation milestones captured public imagination. Priced at £550 complete, it appealed to those seeking both performance and prestige in their personal aircraft. The Comper Aircraft Co., Ltd., based at Hooton Aerodrome in Cheshire, positioned itself as a leader in crafting machines that could conquer new frontiers.
