VISUAL DESCRIPTION
The image commemorates Captain Geoffrey de Havilland’s victory in the King’s Cup air race covering 830 miles flying a standard Leopard Moth equipped with a standard Gipsy Major engine at an average speed of 139.51 M.P.H.—a remarkable feat during that time which highlighted both pilot skill and machine excellence. This achievement not only celebrated individual prowess but also served as powerful marketing material for De Havilland showcasing superior design and engineering capabilities inherent within their aircraft models.
