Image Media owns signs near O’Hare Airport runways in Chicago.  Insider asked Michael Scheid Jr. to talk about the challenges of developing a billboard near an airport runway.

What’s it like to have a billboard near a major airport?

Anything within a certain proximity to airports requires approval from the FAA. Our contacts at the FAA are terrific to work with, responsive and helpful.

One of our structures has down lighting, and red signal lights due to this proximity to landing and departing aircraft.

The bulletins near the airport make for Great POP pictures, with the planes in the background.
