    Re: OT Fly On Farming

    Worked as a hired hand on a farm back home for a couple of years. Got to be a "marker" one summer when they hired a neighbor to spray insecticide on some rapeseed fields. Basically the procedure was to have one guy at each end of the field to give the pilot a reference to line up for each pass. Once he was lined up on you, you would run a certain number of paces to give him his reference for the next pass. The trick was knowing when to start running so you didn't get caught in the spray.
