Cropspraying, The Ag Pilots

Movie about cropspraying. Some photos with music and then the planes with real sound. Air Tractor 401, Cessna Ag Husky, Thrush Turbine, and a Air Tractor 401 with 3 blade prop. Update: two of the pilots in this video are no longer with us. Attie Smit died in October 2013 in a accident at his home (non aviation related) and Riaan Foley died in April 2018 in a motor vehicle accident. Both of them was very skillful pilots, but they died in non aviation related accidents. R.I.P

@ 5:40 the pilot is not wearing his shoulder harness... why would he do that???

[@camiLaloV]

I did spray the cowl and hopper with matte clear coat, to get rid of glare and worked perfect, so I wear the shoulder harness all the time.

Where is the spraying being done? What country?

[@TokkieCarstens]

This in South Africa, Western Cape region.
If I'm not mistaken most of the video is shows Piketberg / Porterville / Eendekuil erea...

Its a real shame this is a dying job. I would have had my training done and been flying already.

[@tgh223]

i know they out dated but nothing will ever sound like the old radial pratt and whitney

[@spitoinkr]

It is kinda sad that you don't hear them that much anymore. I remember in the late 70's that on some days you would hear them the whole day. So much that at night you'll hear ghost sounds in your head, and you'll be thinking that there's still a radial engine operating outside there in the dark.
