A Bell 412, owned by Falcon Aviation Services of Abu Dhabi, flew along the shore of the United Arab Emirates while displaying the world's largest aerial banner in celebration of the UAE's National Day in December.

"This is our fifth year of flying this amazing flag, and it seems to get bigger every year," says A J Baker, vp of commercial business at Falcon Aviation Services.

The banner measured more than 4,600 sq m and was visible up to 12 miles away, ensuring the entire city of Abu Dhabi could witness the flight.
