1st: At the time I used to cringe at what we used to trot out as 'Aussie identity', these days I look back at it with with nostalgia. These days you'd go a long way to see a piece of advertising of the type with a gum tree in it or a bit green and gold. Sigh.
I cringe when they ham up the old school stereotype Aussie today. Nothing will ever match the 70s and 80s no matter how much they try and relive it now.
2nd: This was filmed before computer fudgery of photos and images. That means someone had to march down a taxiway with a lawn mower while a 747 taxied past!

Did you see the GTS ad? That was an early example of computer graphics. Sure, not involving background images, but related to your point.
