    Nice shot of a crop duster. Don't see to many biplanes of this type anymore. Some of these crop dusters are used by the Forest Service to drop retardent.

    Klaus: I never see these things any more in California. It was surreal to say the least. I only wish I could have caught him doing a banked turn low to the ground... this shot was taken as he was heading back home.

    All of your shots are excellent. When traveling in CA by car I have seen several dusters. This is a great picture. Please go back & get the tight turn shot. As I former military pilot, this brings to mind many experiences.

    Dick, I sincerely want to go back and get some tight turn shots. The area where this was taken is a good hour from my home... think I can get the farmers to print me up a crop dusting schedule? Meanwhile, you must have some great experiences to tell about. having been a military pilot. Thanks for stopping by!

    I love crop dusters. They are a crazy bunch. They have to be to do the things they do with those planes:)
