Rugged beauty down on the farm

Hey, if you fly back through the chemical trail do you lose consciousness? :Thinking:

As real as it gets

These are great shots but I would have to add (I worked many years in the ag chem business) that you are spraying at way too high an altitude. Most spray applications are done from a height of 2 to 3 metres above crop height. Zoom climbs, high-G 180* turns and gut wrenching dives to spray height for a leg in the opposite direction are the norm, not the exception. Aerial application is a costly business (to the farmer) and he wants it done quickly with near 100% accuracy.

 

People think a dog fight is exciting to watch, aerial spraying is no less so.

Yes, I know. Guilty of poetic license in trying to make a more "scenic" shot.

I generally don't make comments in screenshots but I'll make an exception in this case. Very, very nice.
