VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This vintage advertisement celebrates a remarkable achievement in aviation history, highlighting the successful London-Malta record set by four Hawker Sea Furies. These powerful aircraft were piloted by skilled Royal Naval pilots and relied on the high-quality fuel provided by Shell BP Aviation Service to complete their journey. The ad proudly proclaims "Hats off to the Navy!" as it commemorates this feat of speed and endurance with a recorded time of 3 hours, 23 minutes, and 21 seconds—a testament to both human skill and technological advancement during an era when breaking records was synonymous with national pride and progress.
