Only kind of farming going on in Eastern Washinton right now.Caught the crop duster flying on money the other day.I think this job would keep the heart pumping.I would like to give it a try.Only way to stay out of the mud is to be in the air.Hope you like the pictures.You might catch a tractor in the back ground.BlaineF(WA)

Sure is fun to watch those guys isn't it? I too would love to try it one day, but it's doubtful that will ever happen. My 88 year old dad gets a kick out of watching them when he visits, and he was a pilot back when. He said they must have BIG gonads!
This one flew over a few months back and I managed to catch a few shots with my phone. First picture you can see the spray across the road, so obviously the plane is in front of that spray! He was flying under the power lines after crossing the road, yea he must be crazy.
The second picture is when he was pulling up to fly over the power lines since he was in line with the power pole. Never looks like he clears the lines by much but........he always misses!

We're getting hundreds of windmill generators put up in this area. Some places they're fairly close to each other. How close to windmills will crop dusters fly?
