- Join me as we dive into the world of fertiliser topdressing across the breathtaking landscapes of Otago, New Zealand. In this video, I share my experience of flying at low levels over the rugged terrains, demonstrating what's required to spread fertilizers effectively. I also discuss the lightbar system, a game-changer in ensuring accuracy during our applications.

Missed ya Jimbo.
Thanks great being in the cockpit again.
Blue up stay safe.
Thanks for inviting us into your office - thoroughly enjoyed that!
Man, you should do Netflix series or similar. I am watching half an hour video about fertilising some fields without skipping...
you've got a way of making what you do look easy. just flying in that environment looks scary as hell but then all the complicated systems ... wow what a ride. absolutely thrilling. can still remember my one off circuit in the backward facing "cubby hole" of an Airtruk on a Dairy farm in Kaukapakapa North Auckland back in circa 1977. ps hated it , spewed ( all the fert dust of course ... ) like flying with you tho , from comfort of my forward facing lounge chair ! Legend mate.
Facing the wrong way would throw me out of whack, too! 😆
You got Murry Stewart the Turkina Valley man with you , Nice digital dash,
Great video Jimbo. Loved watching you run that lightbar. I’m new and still struggling 😂
Very interesting thanks Jimbo. Always wanted to fly and fly ag but colour blindness meant I could never get a commercial rating. Great to come along for the ride though. Cheers. Stan.
Fantastic commentary and beautiful flying! Keep it up!
Great overview of a professional job.
Great video, thank you for posting, this environment demonstrates you need to be 100% on your game all of the time.
Fly safe. All the best from the U.K.
Great video jimbo welcome back!
What a great office you have.
Thanks for inviting us along 😊
Cheers!
fantastic voiceover work, very engaging video
Thank you, I appreciate your kind words 🍻
Awesome once again, thanks Jimbo!
That was really interesting thanks Jimbo, always wondered how you guys figured this thing out. Thanks for the VLOG!
Another good one thanks mate.
Great tutorial video as usual, in a great part of the country, thanks Jimbo.
Awesome footage Jimbo. Thanks for sharing. Reckon I could do that. Um probably not. Take care mate. Cheers.
Haha cheers 👍
Great videos!
Friggin Awesome !!! Thanks for taking us with you lll 😁😉😎
Cheers, appreciate it! 🤠
Great explanation of how it all works!
Super, my friend 🙂
Thanks Petr 😎
Better and better!... why the hell did I take an office job! 😜
Thanks Jimbo.
Cheers 😁
Awesome. I had no idea all those rocks needed fert
I had no idea you pay so much attention to the thermals/ridge/wave lift when climbing , good stuff! Sounds like it's all good training for your glider flying career
Haha, it sounds like we need to do a swapsies. Your version looks much more complex than throwing fert around 😆
Great stuff; I’m amazed you aren’t getting more views 👍🏻
Cheers 😎
Awesome video Jimbo, is this the Nevis Valley?
Cheers, Cadrona Valley 👍
great part of the world! Are there any Ag operators based around Wanaka?
Sure are!
The topdressing is for hay production? Do the farmers notice streaks if a pass is misplaced? Do you prefer the AT's or the PAC's?
Fert for grass for stock 👍 depends on the product as to whether or not you'll notice striping. Both aircraft have strong points, and both suit NZ very well 💪
Brilliant 😎😎👍
I wish I had done that when I was younger instead of driving trucks. I had my private license and I worked on my IFR rating. I should have just went ahead and got my commercial and went to crop duster School. Come to find out the government probably would have paid for it....
