As a commercial, it is very impressive. I am sure it was very expensive, but surely there have been Superbowl ads that cost even more. Since I an not an airline CEO, I have no idea whether this would impress me enough to buy the Airbus instead of the Boeing. I would think fuel efficiency and other factors would be most important.

I bet this scene shows up in one movie or another as eye candy.

   For a commercial I would use photoshop.

    That is a lot of metal.

Perhaps photoshop would have been too obvious. This was impressive. I suppose they need to take every plane the sell up for some sort of test flight, anyway. I don't think I would want to buy a plane that had never flown.
