DIVERSE EXPERTISE DEDICATED TO YOUR SUCCESS
BREAKING BARRIERS SINCE 1996
Our director, Sohn Herbert, is a highly accomplished aviator, helicopter and gyro/rotorcraft pilot, and para- and motor-paraglider with more than 4,000 skydives to his name. He is also the chief designer of aviation operational systems and media/stunt shows.
In 1993, Sohn invented the world’s first and still the most widely used Heli Overland Banner System (HOBS). He secured global patents and regulatory approvals from CASA, FAA, and EASA in 1999. The system’s first flight took place in Melbourne, Australia, in 2000 and has since become the industry standard for aerial banner advertising.
The idea began in 1992 with a bold vision to elevate brand exposure—literally. Sohn Herbert developed the first helicopter banner system capable of flying over land, breaking decades-long aviation restrictions that had prohibited such flights over populated areas. After three years of research and development, he not only brought the system to life but also trained pilots and crews in 18 countries, turning large-scale aerial advertising into a global phenomenon.
That same pioneering spirit continues to drive everything we do today. From super-sized helicopter banners to skydiving message drops and parasails, we specialise in creating unforgettable, high-impact moments that leave your brand floating above the crowd and etched in memory.
