    Awesome video Jimbo👌
    Incredible to see what is going on inside the cockpit and what you are constantly thinking about. You certainly have a lot of things to consider.
    Keep up the great work on these videos.
    Stay safe.👍

    And I thought forest fire bombers were crazy pilots. You lot take the prize. That's some daunting terrain you're working around. Brilliant as always Jimbo!

    Mate that was awesome. We're often flying around there in the gliders, but ideally not that low... landed at Taumarunui once. I've done a couple of steep strip landings but you sure have to time it well to get to the top, otherwise you're stuck holding on the wheel brake until someone comes to help!

    • @JimboBurgess
      @JimboBurgess  3 роки тому

      Cheers mate. I often wondered if you guys poked around there, never saw any in the 5 years I was based there. Maybe I wasn't looking high enough 😉

    @ronnieandpatriciamackinnon4958 3 роки тому

    As usual,,stunning pilotage!!
    And the numbers on that aircraft,,,wow!!
    Iam sure the bent wing has performance purpose?

    • @JimboBurgess
      @JimboBurgess  3 роки тому

      Cheers! The wing dihedral helps with lateral stability- it holds itself upright betterer 🤓

    • @ronnieandpatriciamackinnon4958
      @ronnieandpatriciamackinnon4958 2 роки тому

      I had to look it up,,it's called a cranked wing..and it's exactly as jimbo describes it..similar to a phantom and instead of starting dihedral at the root,they do it outbound..
      And after watching a few of this lads low turns,,,I suspect it comes in handy to keep the dirt of the wing tips...lol!

    This is really good stuff. How much is this helping the stock's food supply? Like doubles it or more?

    • @JimboBurgess
      @JimboBurgess  2 роки тому

      It can be a lot more depending on the previous fert applications, if any 👍

  • @lautoka63
    @lautoka63 3 роки тому

    Crikey! Where exactly are you? Not the specific farm, obviously. As a glider pilot I'm reasonably used to polishing the rocks, but you're doing it with a load on board and a job to do. Pre-light bars, it must have been quite a skill to put fertiliser where needed.

    • @JimboBurgess
      @JimboBurgess  3 роки тому

      A couple of miles north of NZTM, she's a beaut spot 👌
      The pioneers deserve a lot of credit for the work they did pre light bars. Artists

    How do you map the block into the onboard computer to sort out the sowing area Jim?

    • @JimboBurgess
      @JimboBurgess  2 роки тому

      Great question. Short answer is we use a version of Google earth on a PC to map it out. The long answer could be a video in itself 😊
