Dependability
In carburettors there is no greater essential than dependability, and—
The dependability of the White & Poppe is such as ensures a never-failing and invariable efficiency.
That's why it is the favourite with many of the leading Airmen of the day.
Our Booklet describes it fully, and we shall be delighted to send you copy.

BURBERRY
AEROPLANE EQUIPMENT.
DESIGNED BY EXPERTS is workmanlike both in design and detail, and permits absolute freedom for arms and limbs. Made in wind and weatherproof Gabardine, lined throughout with Camel Fleece or Quilted Eiderdown, it maintains phenomenal warmth under the severest conditions.
BURBERRY GABARDINE is remarkably airylight, yet affords perfect protection against wind, cold or rain, and is so strong that broken stays cannot penetrate its dense texture.
Mr. C. Grahame-White:—"I take this opportunity of thanking you for the suit I wore on my memorable flight and feel I cannot recommend the material too highly where warmth and comfort are required."

"AFTER 13 HOURS UNDER WATER"
THE MEA
(The Magneto with the Bell-shaped Magnet) RAN PERFECTLY.
"One of your Magnetos delivered to us last year has had a severe test, proving it to be absolutely waterproof. It was fitted to an engine in a motor boat, which towards 7 p.m. ran full of water: next morning about 9 a.m. we pumped her dry, and, after your magneto had been about 13 hours under water, it was found to be in perfect working order, and the engine started up without a hitch."
