You would be amazed at the sheer lack of information available on this
topic, Cliff. :-]

As far as I know, there are no regulations against skywriting (I checked the
FAR/SFAR with no mention of the subject), obviously following the guidelines
about safe operation distances from populated areas. Here in South Bend,
Indiana, we have a cat locally who owns a 300 with a smoke device. I've
never seen any skywriting done with it, however, but I don't think it has
anything to do with rules against it.

Also, it seems important to note that skywriting seems to be a "dying" art.
You just don't see much of it at all these days. I'm really hoping by
bumping this thread a bit someone with a little bit more knowledge on the
matter will speak up for you.

How do I generate smoke "sky writing" from a SEL airplane and is it legal?
