On the End of Hastings Pier

Congratulations John and Rachel, captured during that special proposal moment on the end of Hastings Pier in today's heatwave.

Airads succeeds once again in bringing romance to the air.

A Windy Afternoon on Southend Pier

A Blustery, showery afternoon on the end of the pier at Southend but true love prevailed and Suheil gallantly proposed to Gemma and was caught in the act by the aircraft camera!

Congratulations both of you and we hope you'll be very happy together.

A Perfect Proposal at Hever Castle in Kent

A Proposal at Hever Castle

Congratulations Martin and Sam at the lovely Hever castle in Kent this afternoon. It took weeks of preparation and lots of worry during yesterday's bad weather but it all worked-out perfectly in the end as you can see from the photo, taken with the aircraft camera.

It's TimeToGo Mr KenWright

Massive coverage for the first banner of the season at St Mary's Stadium, Southampton, where The Saints took on Everton.

Everton fans had commissioned a banner calling on the club's chairman to stand-down and this flying gesture attracted significant attention across the sports media.

What a Lovely Gesture

It's not often we get thank you notes from our clients but this one in particular was a lovely gesture, following the wedding of Neil and Vincent near London, earlier in the summer.

Wishing them both a very happy future together,

Congratulations at the Glynde Festival of Love 2015

Congratulations Alan and 'Soo Soo' at this afternoon's Festival of Love at Glynde in Sussex this afternoon.

After this morning's big thunderstorms, it turned-into a lovely afternoon for a marriage proposal.

Here's the festival from above.

Happy Birthday YAYA From Paddy Power

Irish bookmakers Paddy Power booked Airads to  fly a 'Happy Birthday Yaya Toure' banner over the Etihad Stadium as Manchester City took on QPR today.

The Ivorian is reported to be off in the summer, with Inter Milan - and former manager Roberto Mancini - favourites to sign him.

City were playing QPR so it seemed like the perfect opportunity to wish Yaya a happy birthday.

A Touch of Reality

Pictured earlier today, The Reality Party banner flying over Ramsgate and South Thanet in Kent, with less than a week to go before the polls open for the General Election.

Airads may have some more political banners to fly very soon.

Labour's Debt and Taxes over Ramsgate

To celebrate the campaign visit of Guardian columnist and left-wing author, Owen Jones to Ramsgate, in support of the Labour candidate, Will Scobie, a special banner was flown today.

Possibly not quite what either had in mind for a good campaign day out before the General Election in the strategic seat of South Thanet?

Sherlock Bones

The Sun Story on Toby Terrier

On Saturday, we were part of the search for Toby Terrier;#FINDTOBYTERRIER at Wokingham.

I do hope that someone does the right thing and returns the little fella as the owners are trying so very hard to find him and bring him home.

Update: delighted to hear Toby was found and returned today.

Rock and Roll Bride

Excellent! Last summer's special proposal flight at Brighton Pier, from Michael to Gordon, and the gay civil ceremony that followed, features in Rock & Roll Bride.'

Of course we are absolutely delighted for both of them.

Becky Said Yes

Congratulations Adam and Becky this afternoon, near Berkhampstead.

The flight was held over because of bad weather yesterday but true love prevailed and the Labrador played a starring role.

Worthing Birdman 2014

The weather worked out fine for the annual International Worthing Birdman today and Airads was overhead for a client taking photos of the activity below. Not much sign of flying but rather a lot of large splashes from the end of the pier!

A Coach with a View in Oxford

A #CoachWithAView at Oxford this week promoting the Stagecoach bus company's new service. This was from Enstone airfield and the banner was another which is starting to leverage the social media opportunity with Twitter.

Oxford's spires looked fabulous in the bright sunshine.
