NC600Y (N600Y) current in 2023. Pilot is Anthony "Andy" Stinis, the writing on the side says "Licensed by Skywriting Corp of America". Stinis was a skywriting pioneer and in 1932 became Pepsi-Cola's official skywriter. Later flew flying boats for Pan Am and the US Navy. Postwar helped develop "skytyping" where several aircraft write at the same time. Stinis was killed in 1992, aged 83, when he was struck by a car while crossing the road in Florida.

This aircraft does not appear in any FAA listing although from fragments of the registration in other photos confirms it is NC18399 as stated by the Smithsonian. Erickson & Remmert were a Waco dealer and the current FAA register shows N18399 to be a temporary registration reserved for use of manufacturers. Maybe that was always the case and this AVN-8 received a permanent registration when sold. Photo by: Rudy Arnold / Smithsonian Institution
