I am with farmer 1........I used to land in our place close to our thoroughbreds and a kids pony in a medium twin....If you do it right you'll have to make sure that they don't get curious and rub or bite along the paint work....nibbling teeth make a mess of aviation metal sheet.
It was more annoying when neighbours called over for the chance to have a look at the machine close up. Interruptions to morning tea doing the
PR thing...yeesh.
The thing with flying around equine habitat is to minimise the harsh maneouvres, slap and give them a chance to have a look at you to decide whether it's a threat or not. Everything slowly and as though you are supposed to be there. Bit like flying EMS I suppose.
I guess the fast noisy flyovers where you pop out from behind trees or a ridgeline by surprise, could be a problem. If you're visiting friends with horses, get them to throw a couple of biscuits of hay out to keep the ponies out of the way & busy. Do it that way and the ponies will associate you with reward of food. Then you'll be right. Neighbours ......that's another story.
