Cropdusting in a Piper PA 18 SuperCub in south Texas

I think, an airliner jet gives to you happiness. A small, sweet and STOL Cubs give to you Freedom...

My dad fly j3 and pa-18 in the 1950 and 1960's in S. Texas. He help pioneer that industry. His name was Rupe Ruple. He taught me how to fly but never wanted me to crop dust or spray our crops..... He had some great stories. Obviously your not dusting because the back seat would not be there for the camera man. I love to fly low. We use our cub for airial video of ranches now. Dad quit flying when he said he had to "think about" whether he could fit between the fence and the power line.

Yeah, he isn't crop dusting....thats why he said "mock" crop dusting in the description. :)

I hope you close the window next time! Cool video!

And to think people get paid to do that... didn't know they used PA18s for dusting... that's cool.

Well, it is a good way to get killed! The PA18 was used (by this dusting service) for training only, although they have been used, as well as J3 cubs! Very dangerous airplanes for the pilot, being sandwhiched between gas and chemicals!

that's what makes it interesting!
