Richthofen (sorta) featured in a commercial!!

It was the normal commercial breaks.I forgot what the commercial was about but it starts with this man hitting a golf ball and it rockets to the sky and lo and behold,a (bearded) representation of The Baron in his red triplane (naturally).When I first saw it I instantly pointed to it and said "RICHTHOFEN!!!".I knew it wasn't an accurate representation of him but I was so excited to see something WWI aviation related on TV!Anyone else seen this?

I have seen it several times before. I haven't seen it in about three weeks now so I thought it was off the air.
