Hi guys,
can anybody enlighten me on how much stress (due to drag) a banner of let's say 1.500 sqm would put on the airframe? Would it actually be comparible to external load work (the heavy stuff I'm talking)?
Thanks for the replies.

Australian Heliflag
Who was that flying the Australian flag / banner on Australia day? Are they the only people that are allowed to do this or do civvy companies do this aswell? I presume they designed this type of flying?

Banner Towing out of Southampton 83-86
Anyone know which company was banner towing with a 172 from 8/83 and then in a Super Cub and an Agcat up until 86 out of Eastleigh? I am researching John Fairey's log books and that is where this crops up.
Cheers

Towing advertising banners
Amongst all the fixed wing banner advertisements going on ahead of the Super Bowl this weekend today was the first time I have seen one slung under a helicopter. The banner looked huge in comparison compared with the fixed wing banners. Any benefits by using rotors over fixed wing? Any other pros, cons or risk? Have attached a couple of (poor pictures I took)
Also think I saw a Blackhawk fly over this afternoon in Downtown Atlanta?
I believe banners may have been discussed on here before but couldn’t find a specific thread.

Benefits include a longer time for the viewers to read it, bigger banners because of slow travel (but slow travel caused by being big, lots of drag)
Cons are: more noise, more intrusive, longer for the punters to complain, stress on the airframe by having such a draggy heavy thing pulling the nose down, limited distance to cover as only going 30-40kt.
