Ah ha... surely at some point though people will just start to see him as a rich dirty old man that gropes young models? I mean that photo is cringe worthy.

Anyway I'm off to start me an airline and damn your rules and conventions ;)

he is a champion in my books! he is just charismatic and knows how to treat a lady...and show her a little fun!:2twocents
i admire what he has done with his life and how he lives life to the fullest.
builds up a massive single brand empire on the back of innovation and marketing genius then uses his monies to live out his dreams....who doesnt want to live on their own kickass island and fly into space!
 
The guys a Chick Magnet.
Even pictured with one of Hef's exes.

took me a while to notice him, he should bring out a new 'Virgin' brand kids book...Where's Richard (saves you all the very poor taste pun)

Main diff between Dick and the others...he's usually apart of the marketing campaign. He obviously enjoys that and beleives it brings value to the marketing.

I think it's a little sleezy but hell if I had the money I would be Heff.
From a consumer point of view, it's interesting. I say sleezy but then open up most mens/womens mags and you'll see lots of guys/girls touching in any number of combos and positions. So in that sense, so what.
End of the day the models they use in the marketing a far better for obvious reasons than the actual air hostesses. Never been impressed by the talent of actual Virgin staff across all the companies.

Compared with other organisations you'll find the Virgins to be some of the most poorly stocked talent banks. They just contract out for marketing campaigns.
The V'Blue is the worst, the one place I'd expect the worlds hottest...UAE probably has the most tallent
 
I still reckon it is a high-risk marketing policy. I asked my missus and she thought he was a bit of a sleaze too; a charismatic octopus. The again we are obvioulsy not the target audience.

Without a doubt, he has a good lifestyle. ;)

As for Sir Dick, well here is a man that I truely call 'Sir':

I guess the bottom line is that they have made Qantas more competitive with their prices. I do get the sleaze feel though. And their food is better than Qantas everyday!

Qantas should scrap their kitchen and go to user pays - at least then we can get something decent to eat on a flight that Qantas deems a non-food flight! How can 7pm from Melbourne be considered as a non-food flight! And how do they get their rolls so cold!

Ah, my hubby got Viv Richards out!
 
These are the days in 'the office' that I look forward to....well, maybe not exactly the same....but somewhat similiar...well maybe in a few respects....
Sir Richard we salute you ;)
