I can only think you are being sold off ? Or the rest of the Government’s 50% or whatever.
I have only seen the brochure. It was shown to me in a London pub. I couldn’t stop
laughing even though I hadn’t finished my first drink ! Would the CEO join us for
one of his ‘Bar Stool Sessions’ – I bet he wouldn’t buy a round by the looks of him?
I don’t like his face or that of his ‘chum’ Tony Baloni (Blair). I bet they are Clapham
Junction train spotters – they have ‘that’ look !
Strewth the copy in that brochure ! It’s dire ! Wolf Olins, well the less said about them
the better. All that upper case ! In Internet etiquette that is SHOUTING !
Bad really bad. What did these mugs pay for all this, £1 million ++?
They seem to spend much of the brochure justifying those stripes. A logo should reflect
the business, er ....wait a minute you are involved with safety right ? Anyway there
should be a colour conformity about the logo,for instance Virgin. Everybody knows Virgin
and certainly easyJet by the colour. In fact it is so bad I lost my sense
of humour after a while. I understand there is some form of low level naff book that
goes with this brochure ?
With my film interest it took a second to notice the current fascination with 1960’s
imagery. As retro’d by Austin Powers and now even the Fimbles. What’s your
company song ? “We all live in a Yellow Submarine” ?
No,no don’t tell me they wanted to paint everything John Major ‘Grey’ back in the
Mid 1990’s. I bet your management wear violet ties ? (and socks to match ?)
Is this sort of rubbish new to NATS ? Or have you been suffering this type of
bovine-scatology for a while ? Is the genuine aviation person a dying breed ?
Is this obsession with money and costs safe ?
Who will be your next CEO, Michael O’Leary ? – Heaven forbid !
As someone keen on aviation I would imagine the real ATC staff are dedicated
Professionals. I feel a concern for them.
Remember the last line of the recent Budget ? “£30 Billion will be raised through
Government sell-offs.” I bet you are included in that figure. What ‘pirates’ are waiting
in the wings ? Ryanair or Serco ? Things seem to be going that way ?
If that is that case I will be taking the train to Spain in the future !
Maybe it is easy for me on the outside looking in, perhaps I am an aviation purist ?
Or I am just appalled by that stripy brochure and the execrable copy.
