VISUAL DESCRIPTION
In this historical advertisement from "The Bristol Aeroplane Company Ltd," we see the celebrated success of their Perseus sleeve-valve engine after completing a rigorous 260-hour test under extreme conditions. The text details how it endured high temperatures and continuous operation to simulate real-world stress on aircraft engines during flight. Notably achieving around 900 bhp at 2,700 rpm during final testing phases focused on maximum output without breakdowns or significant wear indicates reliability for civil aviation use—a testament to engineering prowess in an age when durability was paramount for safety.
