Advertising Services
Providing you with services to get your message out.
Aerial Advertising Co. will provide you with a complete advertising campaign. We will assist with the design process and provide detailed information on the current markets available. We will finish with a detailed review of your campaign and affected markets.
Banners
Letter Banners are a popular way of delivering your message to the audience below. You can target your specific audience - over football, baseball games and other sporting events, over the 4 million commuters that travel our roads and freeways each weekday morning and evening, over your store, plant, campus or event, and over the many tourist areas, parks and recreation areas in the greater San Francisco Bay Area. We can fly anywhere in California or arrange flights in most metropolitan areas throughout the United States through our network of aerial advertisers. One call to us and we will arrange flights in multiple locations.
Our fleet of antique biplanes can each fly aerial banner messages of up to 40 characters/spaces (letters, numbers, standard punctuation marks and red hearts are available). A message of 35-40 letters, including spacing, will stretch up to 150 feet across the sky behind the biplane. Each letter is an individual unit so your message can be changed as often as necessary. Our easy-to-read, bright red letters are the large 7 foot high commercial size. Other color letters (white, yellow, blue etc.) are available at additional cost on special request and require advance notification.
Flying Billboards
The standard-size flying billboard is 30 feet high and 80 feet long, however they can be as large as 50 feet high and they can reach 110 feet long or as small as 10 feet high and 15 feet long. Your slogan/logo is permanently painted on in any color(s), fonts and size within these dimensions.
All flying billboards are custom designed to the customer's specifications and priced accordingly. Computer generated artwork is also available. The one-time manufacturing charge includes storage of the flying billboard when it is not in the air. Send us your artwork and we can provide a quote for you on a new flying billboard with no obligation on your part.
Logo Billboards

Skywriting
Skywriting is performed by a single biplane writing out each letter in "long hand" at altitudes of over 10,000 feet. Each letter is approximately ONE MILE LONG! 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 sky written.
Aerial Photography
Our Stearmans are available for filming both on the ground and in the air. They have been featured on local, nationwide and British television and have been seen in several movies and television commercials. Our pilots are experienced in flying for the camera and are willing to work with film crews to secure the needed footage.
You might recognize our aircraft in films such as the NOVA SPECIAL EFFECTS (KING KONG) and RADIO LAND MURDERS (Steven Spielberg). Other features include WORKING AIRCRAFT (produced from England) and many commercials, music videos, and other promotional mediums.
