How Airplanes Fly Those Giant Banner Ads? It's More Dangerous Than You Think...

If you've ever spent time on a US beach during the summer, you've probably noticed a parade of airplanes towing giant banners advertising companies like Dunkin' Donuts or Geico.

At Business Insider they spent a couple of days with the men and women who get these banners flying, and it's no easy task. You might think the airplanes simply take off with the banners attached. Alas, that is incorrect.

It takes a challenging and risky maneuver to attach the banner to the airplane before it flies.
