- Come take a closer look at our 1963 Piper Pawnee. The Pawnee is a very versatile aircraft with many applications in aviation, including ag aviation!
As mentioned in the video, the airplane fabric and paint used on this plane was from @airtechcoatings. We have been using their products for years and they hold up really well on our ag aircraft. I’ve linked their website if anyone is interested in checking them out: airtechcoatings.com
My sweatshirt is from @flyGIRLKelley. Check out her page and website to see the amazing things she and her organization are doing for women in aviation!

I love these little planes, they're fun to fly even when your not working.
Great information, thanks
Two of my favourite things - all the way back to childhood - a Piper Pawnee and a Corgi💜✌️👍😊
I've got lots of Pawnee hours towing gliders. Love the airplane, miss flying it.
Takes me back to the 60's as a kid in Texas watching Pawnees spraying cotton or sorghum fields. Later on it was Ag Cats, Cessna Agwagons, Rockwell Thrush Commander, on up to Air Tractor 300 series and up to the current turbine equipped that fly nowadays. I worked weekends at my small hometown airport my Senior year in HS but cropdusters had moved out by then but there was one Pawnee parked in the grass I would see. Nice memories.
Many happy times towing gliders with the Pawnee. As a teenager flying the Pawnee was a dream I wanted to fulfil. In 1989 I got to fulfil that dream. Great memories, great experience.
My dad was a dusting pilot in Indonesia, he flew the pawnee for tobacco pesticides 1962 - 1937, I always remember when I see this plane.
My first ride was in a Pawnee 50 years ago. My great uncle took me up when I was 6 years old. I sat in his lap and it was the most influential day of my life.
That’s so cool!!
Great video. Thanks 🍀🇺🇸🍀
Brings back memories from when I lived in Woolrich, and worked at Piper.
Many Piper Pawnee built there. Lots of Piper planes built there.
My dad also worked there.. he was project engineer, and also FAA coordinator for Piper.
If any of you people are flying g Pipers.
Sentimental Journey Flyin is June18th thru 23rd. at Lock Haven, Pa. All are welcome..
People come from all over the USA to be here.
Bring some of those Pawnees back. Would love to see them.
A funny story, my dad was building a barn out at our farm. Didn't have the roof on yet, just the beams were up. It was a hot day. Dad noticed a plane flying through the gap at Mill Hall.
It wasn't flying very fast..dad saw it was a Pawnee, and said it was probably loaded to spray somewhere. Didnt think anything much about it, as they flew in the Nittany Valley all the time. It kept flying towards our farm. It was someone that knew dad was going to be out there working. The pawnee approached the farm pretty low, and proceeded to
dump a load of cold water on dad...
It was shockingly cold, but really funny.
You had to understand the pranks my dad and his Piper friends played on one another!
Anyhow, loved the video on the Pawnee.
Great story!! Thanks for watching and I’m glad you enjoyed!!
We had one these in Australia when I was a Kid in the 70s.
I started out in a little Pawnee for a few years and then I sold it in 1987 for a 1983 Cessna Husky with a continental TSIO 520T with 310 hp and that thing was like flying a Corvette compared to the Pawnee.
I still own that C-188 today and fly it on my personal
Crops. I purchased that plane in 1987 for $27,000 😎
Well done young lady, the Pawnee is a great little bird used them in Calistoga CA towing gliders for many years lots of fun and the Pawnee did a great job.
Thank you so much!
Good job with this video…
Material well-organized,
Delivery perfect,
Great camera work!
I flew many hours behind a Pawnee in Minden, Nevada…
Glider tow!
Thank you so much! I appreciate your kind words! They are truly fun airplanes to fly.
Great walk around of a great aircraft.
Love it!
Very informative walk around. Thanks.
I used to tow gliders using PA-25-235s with fixed pitch propellers. They were stripped of all of the gear except the hopper. One was stock, all fabric covered, stock landing gear. The other one had metal covered Hutchinson wings with a Spring Steel landing gear and rudder horn extensions. That was my favorite one. Very easy to fly airplane, probably the easiest conventional gear plane there is to land.
Hutch Pawnees are awesome! And yes totally agree, a very docile airplane to land!
Love this, thank you
LOVE that plane... saw one doing glider tow the other day in Yreaka.
Dream kite - thanks for showing and sharing.
Thank you for being here!
Nice video.
Thanks for the tour Emily. I am a 30 year A&P, I have only worked with commercial jets but I used to watch one of these run next to a MRO I worked at in Dothan AL. The maneuver that was done at the end of the field to track back in the other direction was impressive, pull up hard, kick the rudder over. I always imagined that there were wet tanks inside that aircraft, not that hopper. I understand you always have it under positive G's but still it seems like it could get messy. That fan driven pump is brilliant, I imagine that spreader creates a lot of drag?
This particular spreader isn’t too bad, believe it or not, but yes, some of the larger ones we have will definitely create a lot of extra drag!
Reminds me of JoJo Snow. Those two girls could be sisters.( meant as compliment) This girl knows her stuff.
👏👏👏👏
Reminds me of the early 1970's, except ours were dripping with all kinds of nasty chemicals. No power line knives? Nothing like jump starting them with an angry pilot on the throttle and nothing but slippery cutting edges behind and a prop ahead. Rally Racing aircraft to the field, way before Driver Ed., and count rows....... Sure helped avoiding countless idiots on the road.
My first two seasons were in a Piper Pawnee. Excellent ag plane. 👍
Agreed! My first season and a half was in the Pawnee. It taught me a lot!
Hey Emily! You ever did take me up in the two-seat Pawnee like we talked about!
Great video. I’m happy to hear you pronounce turbine correctly - pronounced turban and not turbyne.
Second loudest airplane I’ve ever flown. You can yell as loudly as you can and you can’t hear it
Hi - Obviously the exhausts are modified, what’s the story behind that; looks like it’s had GA200 exhaust stacks on it at some time too..
It’s an STC’d exhaust from a company in Lamar CO called Air Care. Unfortunately they don’t make them any more.
Price to buy? Max +/- G loads, Wing area sq ft. Super sweet..
I’d say you could get one for around $60,000-$85,000, but it all depends. I believe it’s around 3.8+, but not sure on negative. I’d have to check the book for the wing square footage! Hope that helps!
@@agpilotchick That would be my dream machine, built like a tank that floats like a feather.. Thanks.
Why am i watching this?🤔
Most Pawnees i ever checked out the cockpit was full of poison. No thanks. 2500 TT.
ain't that name a little racist the pawnee indians probably don't like that plane being named pawnee. another thing why has there been so many young pretty youtube pilots having crashes, I think that social media and looking pretty is a little more important than fjying a plane correctiy
Are you aware that Piper named the Pawnee and the rest of its aircraft line from the Cherokee to the Seminole as its way of honoring the Native American tribes? And having known Emily personally, she is one of the most experienced and skillful pilots you will ever meet. She grew up flying and both her parents, her brothers and husband are pilots.
Being woke gets you nowhere, lighten up Francis.......
