While adverts on TV drive me up the wall, some of the aviation orientated ones are usually bearable and original, ie currently Smirnoff and Cadburies Dairy Milk.
I saw a Honda advert last night, while intrinsically about skydiving, it has an interesting formation of aircraft that they jump out of, an unmarked DC-3, a Short Skyvan and something I can’t recognise.
I’ve only seen it once, but I’m sure it will be played to death, look out for it.
