i really doubt that they are trying to use that as a form of advertising. think of it more as sponsorship. its like race cars, you go to see the races and the drivers not because viagra plastered a giant blue pill all over the hood and side of a car. it only makes sense, people have these huge, blank flying billboards, i'm ony supprised they didn't make more moves like this sooner.

You're more than welcome !. By chance, Are you a pilot or an employee of AirTran ?. Tell your Superiors that I do enjoy flying with them especially their awesome courtesy attitude and on-time arrival/departures. My comments may not be heard elsewhere, but you deserve a pat or two on your back.

Not strictly for the purposes of advertising correct but a means to write off advertising dollars. Either way, it's considered advertising.

Ill tell you what made my day when working for Delta Airlines in Atlanta was unloading the Vrods off our widebodies when they first started selling them. Pretty interesting site seeing a pip roll by with HD crates on it.

Could you imagine the bad press if the HD plane crashed!!!!! Seriously, why not? It would be seen by an awful lot of people.
