Sept 17th, 2018: The Manhattan
 
Since Trump gave you that huge tax cut don’t you think it’s about time to free yourself from those ghastly flying bus commercial
airlines with surly cabin attendants and rigid schedules. Go where you want, when you want, in a manner you and your guests deserve.
Why settle for a Bombardier or Gulfstream when you can move up to an Embraer Manhattan.

The Manhattan is as sophisticated as New York City style itself. Deep mahogany wood panels, brass and gold trim and rich jewel hues provide the perfect backdrop for adventure. Beautiful artwork in the entry includes a distinctive metallic mural, reminiscent of the iconic art deco mural in the Empire State Building. Guests can meet in the Cloud Club, a luxury lounge with décor inspired by the Chrysler building. The Cloud Club features a cosmopolitan style bar with retractable bar stools, vintage sconces and a mohair/lambskin divan. One of the key features of this gorgeous space is the panoramic city loft window inspired by Jean-Michel Frank designs. The Manhattan evokes a timeless elegance with touches of grand iconic style. Warm wooden flooring, rich accents and brass light treatments throughout the aircraft create a clubby atmosphere, ideal for the flow of cocktails and conversation.

For dinner options, look no further than The Crystal Room, an enclave that allows six passengers at a time to dine privately, in perfectly appointed style. The Manhattan’s Park Avenue style is evident in the plush divans and rich color schemes. Experience the splendor of a bygone era while enjoying the latest in advanced flight avionics and bespoken designs.

Just 'cuz it's a word don't mean they used it correctly.

They're implying that someone said the designs out loud.

Wouldn't that be the audiobook of The Great Gatsby?

Clodfobble 09-17-2018 05:48 PM

Or maybe all the passengers are blind.

I've heard that recently on Goblin Works Garage (British show on Velocity). From context I took it to mean 'custom made' or 'one off'


be·spoke
bəˈspōk/
  1. 1.
    past of bespeak.




adjectiveBritish

adjective: bespoke
  1. 1.
    (of goods, especially clothing) made to order.
    "a bespoke suit"

    • (of a trader) creating made-to-order goods.
      "bespoke tailors"







Clodfobble 09-17-2018 05:51 PM

Right. So it should be "bespoke" designs. The adjective can't be put in the past tense like the verb can. You are not a "larged" man.

lumberjim 09-17-2018 05:59 PM

well, some times I get Larged.

sexobon 09-17-2018 06:00 PM

I got the impression that bespoken here meant indicated referring back to the latest in advanced.

Is saying:

Experience the splendor of a bygone era while enjoying the latest in advanced flight avionics and the latest in advanced designs.
