But being airborne, they can't do anything about it. I believe that airborne advertising is a different kettle of fish?? But I could be wrong....

Yes I have heard numerous people say they saw the 'Holdenberg' blimp. I dont think it will translate to sales though Oh the humanity.

Holden has to put a big red ballon in the sky to get back into the papers...only it doesnt seem to have got the type of publicity the had hoped for...i would rather see the Duff Blimp...

Seems as though the new advertising venture is spreading.......another photo appears in todays Herald Sun on pg75.

If they are going to put it up at any other events what about putting the slogan:
