Akula, is this the ad that features a guy running in his spare time, then it goes to clips of harrier pilots and other assorted trades, then ends with the same guy now sitting in the open hatch of a SAR Sea King? - if this is the one you mean, then yes it isn't up to much.
I thought another cr@p ad was the one with a single herc and harrier darting about the Balkan countryside, giving you the impression they are about to conduct some really warry stuff... then at the last minute the herc drops a load of aid to swarms of villagers - with someone shouting "THERE IS HOPE"
In contrast though, the one they showed a couple of years ago was quite good. A Tornado(?) in a flat spin and a clock counting down to impact with terra firma. Then at the last minute the fast-jet hero recovers and climbs away - and a simple caption states "NO TIME WASTERS PLEASE"... with the digital readout on 00.07 secs to impact. - Quite cool I thought.
