The plane began by slowly puffing out the word "LOST," and then what looked to be the word "OUR," though one young boy on the pier was convinced that the "O" was a "D" and asked his mom if there were any words that began with "Dur." "No, sweetie, I don't think so," she responded. Finally, the plane finished up.
Skywriting is often associated with advertisements, ambitious marriage proposals or Wicked Witches of the West, but on Sunday, nobody was quite sure what to think.
"LOST OUR LEASE."
After taking the subway into Manhattan, I emerged above ground to find that our skywriter wasn't quite finished. "LAST CHANCE" was now emblazoned over the financial district.
"Now this is getting freaky," muttered a girl with a nose ring and a bag of groceries.
As sunset approached, the plane spelled out "NOW OPEN," which seemed to contradict the previous messages.
"So it was just an advertisement," a friend concluded. "Well, that's boring."
But it turns out the whole thing was an art project. Sponsored by the nonprofit group Friends of the High Line, which supports the wildly popular elevated park in Manhattan, "The Sky Is The Limit/NYC" was six months in the making.

Thats my take what about yours?

Skywriting (used to be more common years ago, a dying art now).
Could have been commissioned by some "OWS" group...or, could have been a man proposing marriage, telling her it was her "Last Chance" to say "yes"....

"CONSPYRACY"
"The arts are supposed to generate conversation but not apprehension and fear," said Councilman Peter Vallone Jr. (D-Queens), who heads the Council's Public Safety Committee.
