22 Advertisements. FLIGHT JUNE 20TH, 1947 Reproduced by courtesy of the British Overseas Airways Corporation Comfort on a higher plane In the passenger aircraft of to-day, as in every other kind of modern transport, Travel is interpreted in tranquil terms. This main saloon of a BOAC Avro Tudor II shows the heights which mobile comfort can attain. Its restful fawn-coloured walls are covered with 'Vynide' —the new fire-resistant product that is as decorative as it is enduring. 'Vynide', having a plastic coating, is exceptionally flexible. It is im- pervious to oil, petrol and grease stains. Soap and water alone are enough to preserve its colourful freshness. VYNIDE IN THE SERVICE OF TRANSPORT R.A. 76- THE HANDLEY PAGE HALTON, civil version of the Halifax, and already in service with B.O.A.C., uses Exide exclusively. The vast majority of Britain's leading aircraft manufacturers are today fitting Exide as initial equipment in their latest passenger and freight carrying aircraft. They choose Exide for severely practical reasons. Lighter weight with greater capacity — better perfor- mance with longer life. The following aircraft are fitted with EXIDE Batteries as initial equipment: AIRSPEED AMBASSADOR AIRSPEED CONSUL AVRO TUDOR I AVRO TUDOR II BRISTOL FREIGHTER BRISTOL WAYFARER CUNLIFFE-OWEN CONCORDIA HANDLEY PAGE HALTON HANDLEY PAGE HERMES VICKERS MILES MILES MILES MILES AEROVAN GEMINI MARATHON MESSENGER PERCIVAL PRINCE i PERCIVAL PROCTOR SHORT SHORT SHORT VIKING SANDRINGHAM CV* SOLENT SEALAND ^ AIRCRAFT BATTERIESLA1 THE CHLORIDE ELECTRICAL STORAGE COMPANY LIMITED EXIDE WORKS, CLIFTON JUNCTION, NR.
