VISUAL DESCRIPTION
The image is another historical advertisement for Bristol Aeroplane Company's Lucifer Engine. This one touts its reliability through an anecdote about its performance in the German Rundflug—a demanding endurance flying competition—where it covered a staggering distance of 7,000 miles without needing any replacements or major repairs. The text suggests that other engines faced numerous issues during similar trials but not so with "Bristol" Lucifer engines due to their superior design and construction quality. This testament to durability would have been particularly persuasive at a time when mechanical failure could mean life or death for pilots.
