Birmingham Airport wrestles with vibrations

BIRMINGHAM Airport should really check its use of stock photographs when it creates its annual report.

While some companies use pictures of the Everywhere Girl for almost everything, the marketing bunnies at Birmingham Airport thought it had come up with a winner when they found an X-Ray snap of a suitcase in stock photography.

Without engaging brain they installed it into page 11 of the PDF of its annual report as an example of how seriously airport security takes its job.

However as a sharp eyed reader pointed out, it seems that the Xray picture shows a little more than a meat pie and a copy of Playboy. While we accept that people do take vibrating toys onto airplanes, after all you are never sure what you are going to need to do on a long flight, it is unusual to see one in an annual report.

Unless the company has good vibrations about the future, we guess. µ
