I found the advertisment spot more sardonic or satirical than out and out funny. In some fashion it was a dismaying display of just how un-important and cheapened all of aviation has become in the media. In the end, the media developed the spot so one must consider the source. Were not talking about a large brain trust at these advertising agencies.
Now on a more humorous note what I really would have liked to have heard is "Mr. Drunk Before Flight Major Airline Pilot Guy". Now that would have been the penultimate in ironic humor! Imagine a beer company encouraging inebriation on the job; "Here's Another Bud Light For You, Mr. Drunk Before Flight Major Airline Pilot Guy!".
I am really amazed that some alcohol manufacturers have not taken advantage of this advertising opportunity! Drunk pilots could now recoup their lost wages with product endorsement spots!
Lest I get flamed to ashes this is all just sarcastic fun!
Take Care & Good Luck To Us All!
