Check out this fantastic capture of a plane towing a banner message past a packed beach in Italy.

Here’s another plane towing a message off the coast of South Carolina (where there’s also a great shot of someone parasailing too).

I don’t know what messages these planes were flying, but at North Perry Airport in Florida someone’s left one of these plane-banners lying out, and you can clearly read the message “CAT I LOVE, YO!“…

    Are you sure the last one doesn’t say “SAY I LOVE YOU”? The U may not be on it yet, though.

  2. Daryl says:

    Yup! Missed I it.

  3. George says:

    I think it may say “Say I Love You”

    The bottom one is about 1/2 mile from where I live. If only I’d been outside!

    On the ground next to the “say I love you” banner is a crumpled up banner which is an advert for a tv show alias. If you go to http://www.vanwagner.com/aerial.htm you will see the banner in flight.
