I love the thrush!! Great technique. Is he jumping a pond or water way and working two separate fields at the same time??you guys got it going on for real!! thanks for the video.

@flyboyzach07 .The paddock being sprayed has a large water storage dam (known locally as a ring tank) in the middle of the paddock. The aircraft is flying up & over (with the spray turned off) the ring tank.

@June062007 ok cool. yeah, i noticed the spray. he looks real professional unlike others with spray on 50 feet out of the working area; spraying cars, ponds, and who knows what else. thanks for the video.

Whenever i see a spraying video from Austrailia, the spray is at the right height, the spray isn't on through the pull-up, its not on early, and it's not a hammerhead turn. All around more professional job than most of the stuff posted on here.

This Turbine sounds really wicked. If I close my eyes and listen to it approaching it makes the hair at the back of my neck stands up. Nice video. I can watch these guys for a whole day and never gets tired from it.
