British Airways Boeing 777 coming to a street near you!

Click HERE and enter your postcode or address in the box! It's part of BA's latest Olympic advertising campaign.

It's very creative indeed!

Very good

...until this happens.

 

[WestCoast]

I wouldn't if anyone can get a picture of the plane with a train, bus or tram?

 

[burneside]

That is very clever, but as somebody in another forum has pointed out, I don't think the BA marketing people actually bothered to listen to the lyrics.

Are you on an iPad or mobile device?

 

[ReverendFozz]

Mobile...Android

 

[WestCoast]

Mobile...Android

That will be why, you only get an embedded YouTube video. I know nothing about Android so I couldn't tell you the reason. Apple devices don't have flash player.

 

[ReverendFozz]

I found it in the end on a laptop...Quite interesting

Android has Flash but you need to download it from the market.

That's pretty funny actually lol

Haha!!!

"Sorry we have no imagery here."

 

[WestCoast]

Mr. Google obviously hasn't photographed your locale.

 

[185]

Haha, tried one on the far side of Manchester Piccadilly..... the red light district!!!

Unsurprising BA pilots kerb crawling with a wide-body aircraft!!

Could have hours of fun with this

 

[CC 72100]

Haha, that was actually quite funny!

 

[Heinz57]

Hahaha this is brilliant!

VEry good. Disney got there a while back though where Goofy came and knocked on your door...

I can just image a boeing 777 coming down my street

 

[bb21]

Haha!!!

"Sorry we have no imagery here."

I got the same with Blackburn BB2.

Obviously Lancashire is not important enough in BA's eyes.

Furthermore, BA1 shows just green fields. BA14 shows some council houses, then not significant enough, then more council houses.

The worrying thing is that it accepted my mother's address - for every possible angle! It's not as though she lives on a busy road!

What's her post code? SS55 5SS? Maybe that is why they have her street on there.

I'm not giving that kind of information away that easily!

It's in the SS3 8-- or 9-- area. That's all I'm saying. And I'm only even saying that much because anyone could work that out using postcode data anyway.

Funnily enough, I was just looking at someone's Photoshop version of exactly the same thing (but with an airborne Ryanair 737-600 refit).

Everyone knows only SS4 postcodes are worth dealing with in that area
