Spurt video: Sod them, let's fly!

February 7, 2007

There's a fairly funny, if not what you'd call balanced, spoof video from fictional pro-aviation growth organisation 'Spurt' doing the rounds...

Note the similarity between Spurt's slogan and that of a leading budget airline.

Apparently the people behind the vid (Airportwatch, Enough's Enough and Greenpeace) also took out full-page ads in the press earlier in the week, possibly in response to Ryanair's Greedy Gordon ones two weeks back.

So, a gutsy piece of satire or a vapid publicity stunt?
