Airehead Posted May 30, 2020 Share #2 Posted May 30, 2020 I love these. Racial engine, crop duster? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheep_herder ★ Posted May 30, 2020 Author Share #3 Posted May 30, 2020 Ag-Cat, but not sure about the engine. Wilbur would know. I posted some last week, but you may have missed those. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Posted May 30, 2020 Share #4 Posted May 30, 2020 Very cool. I especially like the ones silhouetted against the clouds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, yes the clouds were nice that morning, so I took a few selected shots hoping they would convert well to black and white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tizeye Posted May 30, 2020 Share #6 Posted May 30, 2020 I had a friend who flew one. He was crazy! Low altitude run, pull up to avoid power lines along road, take plane into a stall, roll and recover, lined up for next run. Amazing to watch, but no thanks.

sheep_herder ★ Posted May 30, 2020 Author Share #7 Posted May 30, 2020 In between shots, a friend stopped and was telling me about an old timer that use to spray in the area. One field had a line going across that he(friend) had to time it just right to get his(friend's) tractor under without hitting the line. This pilot would fly under the line with both wheels cutting through the corn. This fellow on Saturday seemed to be releasing the spray at a fairly high height. I was a bit surprised that he was not closer to the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allen ★ Posted May 30, 2020 Share #8 Posted May 30, 2020 We used to have crop dusters all over the place down here. Haven’t seen one in a very long while. Very cool. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
