VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage advertisement for the Bristol Centaurus engine, showcasing its power capabilities at various altitudes. The image features a central illustration of the radial aircraft engine with stylized clouds and airplane silhouettes ascending behind it to demonstrate increasing altitude levels. Each plane silhouette corresponds to a specific altitude in feet (10, 000 ft up to 20, 000 ft) and lists the brake horsepower (BHP) output at that height, ranging from 2, 500 BHP to 2, 000 BHP as altitude increases. The text below emphasizes "Centaurus power — at altitude, " highlighting substantial progress in developing this 18-cylinder sleeve-valve radial engine which was known for its high output and reliability during World War II and beyond. It also mentions technical improvements such as increased supercharger efficiency and reduced fuel consumption. At the bottom of the image is the logo of The Bristol Aeroplane Company Limited along with their name spelled out, indicating who manufactured this powerful aviation component.
