VISUAL DESCRIPTION
The image is a vintage advertisement for R. T. E. Radio Equipment, showcasing their radio transmission equipment installed in the first de Havilland 'Albatross' air liners named Frobisher and Falcon delivered to Imperial Airways. The top half of the ad features a dramatic black-and-white photograph of one of the Albatross aircraft in flight, with clouds in the background emphasizing its altitude and speed. Below this photo, bold text announces "FROBISHER and FALCON FIRST DE HAVILLAND 'ALBATROSS' AIR LINERS delivered to IMPERIAL AIRWAYS are fitted with R. T. E. RADIO EQUIPMENT. " This suggests that these particular models were among the first to be equipped with advanced radio technology from R. T. E. , highlighting a significant technological advancement for aircraft communication at that time. The lower portion of the advertisement contains two images showing close-up views of the intricate radio equipment panels used on board these aircrafts. These panels feature various dials, gauges, switches, and wiring—state-of-the-art technology during that era—which would have been essential for navigation and communication purposes. At the bottom of the ad is additional information about R. T. E. , including their full name "RADIO TRANSMISSION EQUIPMENT LIMITED" along with their address at 45 Nightingale Lane, Balham, London; telephone number Battersea 2771; telegrams address Edgarmas Balham; and cable address Phone London.
