Strange Traffic Sign -- What does it mean?
I can't imagine what this sign is trying to warn you from, but here are a few ideas:
- "DANGER: Do not tie plane to car."
- "DANGER: Bouncing planes may strike your car."
- "DANGER: Airplane lavatory may leak onto your car."

Attention all car drivers : "take care of planes if you find any one please throw it outside"

It means: "No lassoing planes from your car"

That is actually a common sign seen on Florida airport runways.
It is cautioning pilots about lost tourists driving on the runways.

I fly what it drags.... It is a Tow plane for gliders :) some clubs (our included) have that sign near any roadway which crosses under its landing path

It means danger of low-flying planes. I'm guessing this is located on a road next to an airport runway.

Simple: "Any car with oversized, stupid crap attached to its antenna is in danger of having said antenna snap in high winds."
Tow plane for gliders...harumph.

Well hey, I was close with the banner-towing idea
Lisa Apr 26th 2007 3:48PM
OTOH, it could also mean, "comments that go through twice are as annoying as having an airplane hit your brand new car." Sorry. ;-)

I guess my brain is in the toilet. I thought it was "Beware Falling Blue Ice"

"Warning: Tetherkrieg ahead"

"Beware of urinating airplanes"

This could be in gibralter spain where the main
road crosses the airpoet runway
justin Apr 26th 2007 10:24PM
i think it might be for planes and training planes that perform rester hook (speeling) landings maybe,

Probably that there is crop dusting in the area. (Crop dusting is spraying chemicals on to crops from an airplane). Crop dusting planes frequent fly very low, sometimes to the point of brushing their wheels long the top of the crop.

It's a sign to warn of tow ropes -- associated with towing gliders into the air as I believe the first poster wrote .....
The plane in question is a Piper Pawnee (common crop duster and now a tow plane). I've dragged a rope through the side window of a van before towing 200 feet of line with a 180 super cub and not paying attention to the threshold. So yeah .. it happens.

It is probably a warning for an airplane that tows ads. They have many of them going up and down the Jersey Shore. And they do not land and take off to pick up the large banner, instead they make a low pass with a hook and pick it up. I guess the field they do it on is a bit to close to a street in this picture.
