Just a question if you can answer that, just how much $$$ would a stunt like that cost [the aircraft banner] not the gem on the finger!
I've closed the door!

$680 for 4 fly-overs. Including Digital Photographs from Jandakot that they take and send on to you.

Anything I say is my opinion, and has nothing to do with/does not reflect the views of anyone I was/am/will be involved with/employed by/volunteer for/associated with. There, I think that should cover it!

Have seen the photos 8) . Our Mr G was by far the best dressed (over dressed :lol: ) man on Cottesloe Beach, and proposed on bended knee, at the waters edge, as the banner flew over.

A little birdy tells me that all of the patrons at the beach erupted into spontaneous applause and cheers as it all unfolded =D> . Afternoon Tea at the Indiana it was smiles all round.

Well done Goerge and congratulations =D> .
