This is very different from the old sky writing. Is there a giant computer controlled bar that releases the smoke at the right time?
It's called skytyping. It's more expensive than regular skywriting because it needs 5 planes but it's easier to read.
Still cheaper than a smoking daisy wheel.
i expected it to be like a long bar with exits you can open and close by computer and that way you could then control it.. isn't 5 planes a bit complicated?
It’s just snoop dogg breathing out at regular intervals
i don't want to be THAT guy, but the companies that operate these planes have done silly things like this in the past, because we will talk about it, and someone will then book it for his birthday
I prefer to be aware of when I’m being advertised to, so I personally appreciate you for keeping that mindset for us.

Always. the answer is always. Because even when you're not actively consuming any media, the advertisements (including more subtle things like product placements and viral marketing like this) have already been absorbed and are doing their thing.
Sorry. 😬
Hey if it means we get crude words written in the sky, I'm all for this marketing scheme.
That sounds like a win-win. I'm generally vehemently anti-advertising, but I'm willing to make an exception for skywriting cause it's rad.
Nothing wrong with that guy. Awareness is a good tool for everyone to have.
Pointing out what it is doesn't necessarily carry judgment with it, it's just facts, and you can use them however you like.
Stuff like this makes my day bearable
A millionaire spending fuck you money to sky type deez nuts? Weird.
If it's a half hour job, 5 planes x $200/hr (conservatively high) x 1/2 hour = maybe $500... And very likely by the company that owns them to get people to talk about it.
Actually a really cheap ad in that case. I'd rather something funny in the sky than yet another annoying ad (costing way more wasted money) on TV...
Proud of them
"Hey man, you see deez nutz in the sky yesterday?"
"Hey man, did you see that in the sky yesterday?"
"What?"
"Deez nutz."
How about FUCK U/SPEZ instead? That'd be hilarious.
More likely, one person spent time and effort, and someone else spent money.
I like how the smoke is just a bunch of little poofs. It makes me imagine the pilot pretended to fart and giggle every time.
Something just needs to be expressed.
Gottem
Can you imagine how many people got GOT that day. Next they will be writting "no u" and half the male population will cum in their pants intuitively
Considering this is over Los Angeles, a LOT of people got got lol
Some things just need to be said.
SomeoneA hero. The words you meant to use are "A hero"
You're underestimating the number of people with money and lots of time in their hand. There are people who dont have to do 9-5 to pay rent or mortgage. They were born with fuck you money.
When did skywriting go from analog to digital?
When people got rich enough that the upper-middle class can afford to hire 5 airplanes instead of 1...
100% worth it
How does one do this? Asking for a friend.
oh its 5 planes? I thought this was some kind of laser that somehow activated the sky's icecrystals like .... sigh .... "chem"trails. (they are not 'chem' trails, they are atmospheric disturbances caused by planes)
couldn't drones do this?
You could do this with one plane "printing" out 5 rows of clouds. It could be a drone printing them out very close, or a manned plane further away.
It could also be photoshop.
Contrails
can prob have a bunch of drones to do it but the visibility could be a problem
works best in night sky i think
It's all downhill from here Humanity
@TesterJ This is fantastic!
Totally worth it if you ask me.
Sure they did.
LA sucks ass
