Crop dusting with a Cub

paddy9953 · Feb 26, 2004

I am a retired pilot but years in New Zealand i used a as we call them
here a PA18A 150 Cub for crop dusting and spaying. A great little aircraft
to handle and allways felt safe. I later went on to FU24's. Paddy.

Hey Patrick

Where in NZ and do you happen to know a Jeff or Allistair Macmillan? Jeff happens to be in the top dressing biz and his dad Allistair used to run a commuter airline.

Welcome Patrick

I have heard nothing but good about New Zealand and the people that live there. It is on the top of my list of places I must see. Can you direct me to some good brown trout fishing if I ever get down there?

Hi Marty, thats great. A verry forgiving aircraft in the air. I wauld like to have a play with a 180hp one but not many around here in New Zealand.
Cheers, Paddy.
