VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage advertisement for Scottish Aviation Ltd. , promoting their Douglas C. 47 executive conversions tailored for VIPs. The ad highlights the company's expertise in converting standard Douglas C-47 aircraft into luxurious, comfortable spaces suited for distinguished clientele such as government officials and royalty, noting that they are the pioneers of this class of work in Europe. The image showcases two interior views of an aircraft: one appears to be a seating area with plush armchairs and tables set up for meetings or relaxation, while the other shows what seems to be sleeping accommodations with neatly made beds. Emphasizing exclusivity and comfort, the ad mentions that these conversions have been carried out for notable figures including "H. H. The Prince Regent of Belgium. " Scottish Aviation Ltd. , based at Prestwick Airport in Scotland, provides contact information including a telephone number with nine lines—a signifier of significant business operations during the time period when multiple phone lines were indicative of a large enterprise. The bottom section lists agents located across various regions such as Pakistan, Indian Union, Burma and Ceylon (now Sri Lanka), Mesrs K. & R. Duncan (East Africa) Ltd. , Nairobi; John Bradley (Dublin); 133 Espanola Rd. , Rawalpindi; Phone: Dewsbury 70225—indicating Scottish Aviation's international reach. Overall, this advertisement reflects post-war luxury travel trends where military aircraft like the C-47 were repurposed for civilian use amidst growing demand for exclusive air transport options among elite travelers.
