''Having said all that I don't think the AAAA's really do anything for the pilots persay. But then it really is an operators association isn't it!?!?!!''
Membership for pilots has in the past and now provides discount and sometimes free training material such as the spraysafe manual,spraysafe exam,as well as discount entry to conferences.
Anyone who takes advantage of these benefits will recieve excellent value.
Whilst it is true that the operators pay for and run the show,it is still the pilots only representative organisation.The association has recognised this with the pilot membership ,giving us a say.
All ag pilots benefit at some level.Whether you pay or not. Dont be a freeloader.It is, after all, tax deductible
