Going strong in the U.S. My company does business with them, so I love flying my C-182 into their strips and low level crop surveying. Much more dynamic than point to point flying at 10k feet, or dealing with a rich businessman/corporation who had a birdstrike on his Gulfstream. But I am in insurance claims, and there are plenty of chemical drift claims to go around, damaging crops and people. Lawsuits and courts aplenty. Still, I don't see the industry shrinking any time soon. Some of our operators are running surplus Bell UH-1s and still turning a profit. Of course in addition to piston and turbine Agcats, Thrushes, Air Tractors, etc. Time are good.
