You know I have never in my life seen an actual crop duster in action. I've seen them in the movies (Independence Day is the most recent one I can think off).
But in a span of 2 hours on the drive north to Wisconsin on Friday evening we saw 4. All dusting bean crops along the sides of I65 in Indiana.
And today after a trip to the store, we saw another one.
Boy do those guys get low. The would be coming out of a field next to the express way and we were certain they were going to hit a semi but they pulled up, did a sharp turn and headed right back into the field dodging power lines and houses the whole way. We ever saw one that was a bi-plane. Chris says he has seen them could out of fields with corn stalks in the wheels - that is how low they get.
As Chris was driving he couldn't get a good look at them otherwise I would be able to tell you the make and model of the planes.
