ADVERTISEMENTS AUGUST 26, 1937. A TRIBUTE TO AEROENGINES ail "The hero of the aeroplane altitude flights is the Pegasus engine. Certainly let us honour the names of Uwins, Swain and Adam, but it is to the Pegasus engine that chief honours must be awarded. It was the Pegasus which made possible the flights over Mount Everest by Lord Clydesdale and Flight Lieutenant (now Squadron Leader) Mclntyre. It was the Pegasus which, in an almost standard Vickers Vespa, first brought the altitude record to Britain. It was the Pegasus in a Caproni, flown by Commander Donati, which took the record over to Italy, and it is a special Pegasus in the "Bristol" 138 aeroplane which has twice brought that record back to Britain." —"Flight."
