A little oops in Iowa

This happened last week in central Iowa, Pilot is ok, it is a spray rig, he caught his skid on the truck either landing or taking off after reloading.

In Some things, perfection is necessary, all the time. No do overs.

Saw a video of a guy coming in hot with his and swung it around and landed on top of the spray trailer. Had to watch it twice.

These guys here dont mess around either, if they are just loading chemical they usually dont even throttle down, I wish I had a pic of the trucks they land on but sadly I didn't grab any the other night when they were back by me

Watched same type of helicopter operate off spray tank trailer Sunday several times with assistant filling as he idled . Said they were in a hurry to finish , but it rained too soon after and they are comming back to repeat the fungicide treatment on my corn. Fun to watch him turn right above buildings.

Helicopters are no fun! Have to watch the real bi-plane crop dusters! Now, that is some flying.

Last year I came across a crew using a copter to trim right-of-way trees. Most impressive was the wind was so strong the cutter was dancing like a snake.

I've watched the videos of them reloading on a trailer and the Medivacs landing on a hand truck. Probably most got their training on Huey's at Ft. Rucker. Those 19 year olds did some unbelievable stuff in Nam. God loved them!
