The advert above appeared on page 54 and 55 of Flight this week, though believe it or not, it did not appear in its original form with a photograph of Bo Obama, the newest member of the first family, though the resemblance is striking. The Boeing ad is intended to subtly demonstrate the 747-8I’s compatibility with Hawaiian airports over its market competitor, but their timing masterfully captures levels of irony that amuse to no end.
Is this the opening salvo in the Air Force One replacement battle?
