Towing advertising banners
for an interesting array of clients

Chip Gnau makes it look easy. Drop a grappling
hook swinging from a rope below a hefty
Stearman biplane down to a wire stretched
across a pair of poles, "hook it," and lift a
16-pound, 50-foot-long ripstop nylon banner
into the sky. "There's a little pull back," he
says, which is why the banner is strung out
nearly 300 feet from the airplane; the shorter
the line, the more of a jerk on the aircraft when
the banner takes flight. Then it's an hour or
so flying loops around Baltimore's M&T Bank
Stadium or Camden Yards, advertising products and services ranging from doctor's offices
to strip clubs to his newest client, a cannabis
supplier. Clients pay about $500 per hour to
have their message flown over the stadiums
or Baltimore's Inner Harbor. Gnau keeps the
banners-and his Stearman-in a hangar at
Essex Skypark on Maryland's Back River. When
he's not flying banners in his Stearman, which
his father bought in 1968, Gnau is a charter
pilot in a Falcon 900EX. He also often employs
a Cessna 172 for banner towing. "Picking a
banner up on a windy day in the Stearman is
a challenge," he says. "The challenge is not
getting the tow rope wrapped around the
landing gear. Dropping the banner is challenging in a crosswind because I have to fly over
the runway in order to drop the banner in the
grass, so it doesn't end up in the trees." Gnau
has more than 12,000 flight hours and both his
son and daughter are interested in flying-and
the family banner-towing business.

many hundreds of hours richer in just a
few months. Few jobs offer such a great
opportunity to build deep and long-lasting
stick-and-rudder skills and the instincts
that accompany them. FT

captain, a banner/glider tow and ferry pilot, and
