I started laughing out loud when they said if you show up with your certificate of course completion you can get...

“An AMAZING special-access aircraft walk-around...”

LOL.

Okay I know new folks to Aviation are always excited to go out to the airplanes on the other side of the “TSA Fence Of Terrorism Doom” but maybe leave off the “amazing” adjective?

Hahaha. There’s your aviation marketing chuckle for the day.


[Edit: It helps if you actually put the video link into the post.]
 
Exclusive, not amazing on the porno vid
 
At least they're trying to get folks interested in GA. A worthy goal if a somewhat cheesy application.

Agreed. Although the person may become very disinterested once they see ERAU’s prices.

But that’s a different thread. Or just a given. Hahah.

That is what makes fresh college graduates so cutsie..... They think they are the ones that came up with "Amazing" and "Exciting" in everything... Look at this amazing new toilet paper..!!! This is such an exciting opportunity in TP..!!!! We are so excited that we actually can use the word exciting and TP in a sentence together....

Yeah, a little cheesy for sure, but hey, we've all been at that point before. Just standing next to an airplane on the ramp made me excited years ago. Nice little video!

To which I would respond: Show, don't tell.
 
The video shows both people in the cockpit wearing white pilot shirts with epaulets and ties. Talk about a turn off.

It’s pretty much standard to have two folks in white shirts in commercial cockpits...

But not in a 172 in a training environment. I've never had a CFI engage in ATP cosplay.

The CFI that did my discovery flight wore stripes. When the front desk guy asked about them he mumbled something about laundry day.
 
“No limits!” CFIT? VFR into IMC?

OTOH, nice production.

Cheers
 
Should I wear a white shirt, epaulet (with no bars) and a tie on my future PPL checkride :)

No, wear epaulets with 4 bars minimum. Your DPE will be impressed.
 
My lady CFI for my ASES wore clothing more suited for the lake or beach than an airline cockpit. No complaints.

Heard that too. So we can take the 172 up to the flight levels? To the Moon? To the Sun? Cool!
There is always at least 1 dumbass who will screw up a rather decent production.
Hey, at least they weren't doing the now-popular ***-dancing.
