My 10 Cents worth
Some have said they agree... Some have said they dont...
Morally... Ethically... Bad Taste... All In Good Fun...
What if the banner was flaying from another kind of Chooper...
Lets say the "WESTPAC Emergency Helicopter ANGEL 1" did the same thing...
They wouldn't... they just wouldn't... and WHY wouldnt they?
For the same reason the Army shouldnt have done it...
Its one of those things...
"I was only thinking about saying it but you actually went out and said it, out loud!"
We all might think of it, but would you actually do it in front of thousands of people with the digital imageing age upon us...
If it were a LINSAY FOX truck
A Woolworths Delivery Truck
A Shell Fuel Delivery Truck
A Jetstar / Quantas Plane
Ronald McDonald
PIZZA HUT
A Race Car on the Track covered in Sponsorship
A Telstra Van
A Coca Cola Truck
A Fire Truck
An SES Truck
A Cop Car (POL-AIR) even
An Ambulance (WESTPAC)
What is the equivillant,
If YOU in your company car, your big glassey window filled sky scraper building, dressed in a work logo uniform with your "SHOW US YOUR T!TS" poster did the same thing again in front of thousands of people with digital imagery, in this politicaly correct world of media sensationalising...
I wonder would you be stood down, or fired on the spot, or even sued for defamation, how would your boss and his corperate image handle it.
Its OK for the Annonomus (drunken or otherwise breast deprived or breast connoisseur come enthusiast) Joe on the street to ask the question of the ladies... but really and I mean REALLY....
In this day and age your responsible and your accountable for your own actions so now you Army fly boys... You had your fun, got a good laugh out of it and blew off some steam, now face your punishment and take it like a man!
