Description
Three color 4 3/4″ x 13 1/2″ ad for their All-Metal Silvaire planes. There is a picture of one of these planes parked on a grassy field at the edge of what could be several houses. There are several couples standing and talking while holding small luggage bags and the headline claims this plane can “Turn Travel Time into Fun Time”. The text talks about turning the time spent getting to and from your favorite vacation spot into a part of the vacation and claims these economical, reliable planes can make it possible. They speak first of the Silvaire De Luxe which has a cruising speed of 112 mph, a 600-mile range and a Safety-Zone cabin. It then mentions the Silvaire Standard which had a 65-horsepower engine and could be purchased with a down-payment as low as $996. Near the bottom of the ad is a picture of a Mrs. T.C. McNeil, Jr. with comments about the good results she has had while piloting one of these planes.
