Default Banner Towing Information ?

I currently own 3 early model Cessna 182's (2 182A's, 1 182B) I'm interested in
having one or two of them set up to tow banners. They are currently jump
planes, and I'd like to use them part time to advertise my business. Can anyone
point me to a company that makes the tow hooks for the 182's, and a place that
makes the banners, and the necessary other equipment.
Please reply to e-mail as I don't check the news group often

or the one above.
Thank you in advance

Go to tradeaplane.com and look under the classification of banner towing. They
have several companies that advertise, and used banner equip. for sale.

Do you want to sell one of those 182's cheap??

Banner towing is under seige. Stadium owners have succeeded in getting
banner towing planes banned from their airspace during events,
ostensibly for "security" reasons. This is cut deeply into the business
and left more tow-ers competing for less available airspace.

In answer to your question. The best aerial billboards and equipment
are coming out of California from a company called Bigup Worldwide.
Billboards are the lightest and have the least drag in the industry.
Easiest set-up. Best presentation all around. Also have a full line
of other equipment. Everything to start and or run an aerial
advertising business. Give em a call at 877-235-9237
(877-2-FLY-ADS)www.bigup.com
