About

Skytypers began operations in 1932 when a little known beverage company hired Andy Stinis to do skywriting to promote its product. The beverage company was Pepsi-Cola and for the next 22 years utilized skywriting as its major mass advertising medium to build brand awareness. In 1946, Andy developed “skytyping” – a faster, more advanced method of skywriting using multiple aircraft to display more complex sky displays and messages. Skytyping provides a high-quality message that is not only clearly readable at large distances, it stays intact longer. The patent for computer controlled skytyping between multiple aircraft was awarded to Andy in 1964 (US Patent 3,151,410). In 1979, Andy’s son Greg Stinis, formed Skytypers, Inc. taking over all patents and rights to continue his father’s business legacy.

In 2004, Skytypers reincorporated in Las Vegas, Nevada into its present structure with Stephen as president. This is part of an ongoing strategic transformation of the company in order to improve its operating rate, reduce cyclical risk and expand its reach into national and international markets.

The mission of Skytypers is to provide a unique, compelling and cost-effective medium for outdoor communication to reach mass markets. The goals of Skytypers are to help private and public organizations inform and educate people about product and service offerings as well as charity projects and public service measures. It is this purpose and goals that have made Skytypers a unique example of American business ingenuity that is firmly ingrained in the minds of millions of people all over the world.
