What a great video This is fantastic to watch.. I think the loader driver could do better, he was probably nervous about being on video.. I was a loader driver exactly like this for 5 years and loved it.. We had a 400 Fletcher though not thi Cresco turbo prop.. Thanks very much for this. Cheers 🍻 😎
@@drzubairanwer7751 The loader vehicle is filling a hopper in the aircraft with fertiliser. The aircraft spreads the fertiliser on hilly terrain that vehicles cannot drive on. The fertiliser is to improve pasture that cattle and sheep graze on. The process is called aerial topdressing and was begun in New Zealand in the late 1940s.
Ballet in the outback. (Fortunately the explanation for whats going on is in the comments, rather than in the description, so thanks for the commenters :))
Yes that is right there is a hopper hole behind the pilot... l believe that airplane can take up to 2 ton.. Its 600 horsepower and has huge wings for special lift efficiency.. Maybe others can have more information for you P
That is some serious badass piloting and a hella fast reload! Not sure what they are doing but if it’s firefighting we need people like this in California now!

Spreading fertiliser on hillside farmland that is inaccessible to vehicles. It's called aerial topdressing and started in New Zealand back in the late 1940s. The early top dressers were De Havilland Tiger Moths, that could carry only a couple of hundred kilograms. Then a purpose-built aircraft called the Fletcher appeared. It had a heavier payload and quickly made its mark. There is an article here if you are interested: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PAC_Fletcher The aircraft in this clip is a Cresco: a descendant of the Fletcher.
What a great video

The replacement for the Cresco is the Falco XL which has a hopper capacity of 2200kg. Farmers Air funded the STC.
looks like a really fun job

That guy is one hell of a pilot.
I have seen these aircraft crop spraying in Australia. Don’t know the aircraft type. But the flight patterns are incredible.
Simply Beautiful
No sweat
Where does the machine put the product into the aircraft? Am I right in thinking it’s directly behind the pilot ? Is it a 1ton bag load ? Great job.

Yes the hopper is in-between the pilot and the jump seat,
They must be Christians to be this brave with God helping them.
Actually, they prefer to rely on their skills and experience.
Lol

See my reply to Mariano below.
Pesticides
@@maddmavic Definitely not! It's fertiliser.
@@MarsFKA i said pesticides
@@maddmavic Yes, I can read, but if you are saying that the aircraft is dropping pesticides, you are not correct.
Awesome !!!!
Hauling a hell of a lot of cocaine!
P&W ❤
I'm off to work in a MRO facility with over 150 P&W engines inducted. We turned out just under 1000 outputs in 2019.
Do you have an aircraft with Pratt power?

I'm sorry for my ignorance, what are this airplane loading? What airplane is this? This pilots are brave!
