Setting concrete forms

The slab is poured

Girders being set

The building taking shape

Interior framing begins

Rooms are taking shape

The parts room is finished

And parts go on the shelves

Engine tear down area

Vintage Aviation Advertisements
The 1920s and 30s, the ‘Golden Age of Aviation’ and Second World War were times of intense aviation development. The competition between both engine and airframe manufacturers was intense as each firm unveiled new designs and as advances were made in performance and efficiency. Nowhere was this seen more clearly than in the advertising of the day.
