Skywriting Services

Did you know that aerial advertising is remembered more than any other medium? A skywriting airplane will certainly get your prospect's attention, and studies have shown that 30 minutes after an airplane banner went by, 88% of people remembered seeing it.

Skywriting Messages Stand Out

Skywriting (or skytyping) is performed by a single biplane writing out each letter in "long hand" at altitudes of over 10,000 feet. Skywriting requires a blue sky background and negligible wind for best results. A short message of up to 6 characters can be repeated twice across the sky. Upon special request a heart, circle or other simple design may be written in the sky.

The letters are about a mile tall and the message may be as long as fifteen miles. The drifting smoke only retains a letter for at most 20 minutes so the message must be written quickly and without mistakes. The success of the mission is determined by several factors. First, the skill of the pilot. He must be both skilled and artistic. That's why we have the best pilots! Second, the plane must have sufficient maneuverability and power. Here again, we don't skimp on quality to give you the best service available.

Messages are usually four to six letters long and each one takes one or two minutes to form. A shorter message is more likely to be visible at once. Longer messages have the chance that the first part may be gone by the time the last part is formed. To remedy this, get multiple planes involved. When two or three pilots coordinate their maneuvers, they can produce the message to be clearly seen in its entirety.

This method of advertising is so novel that it almost demands to be read all the time the letters are forming. So what kind of people would benefit from hiring skywriting to get their message across? Skywriting has been used to successfully advertise soft drinks, motion pictures, websites, political candidates, products, and even marriage proposals!

Our Customers Say:

“I want to thank you and all your AirSign pilots for your professionalism in providing us with two weeks of excellent aerial advertising in the five largest cities in which our film Bella was recently released. The huge aerial billboards you helped us design and then printed for us, were very effective in boosting awareness of our film having won the Toronto Film Festival’s "Peoples Choice Award."
