Say Pal, my old man is an ag-pilot and thoroughly enjoys it. But he has spent many hours convincing me that it is a dead end industry without much of a future. Therefore avoid it if you can.

I know there are lots of flight schools in the states, but couldn't give you any names. I know simcom in Florida do simulator courses for AirTractors and Thrushes. Thats about it,

I think Africa might be a good place to start your investigations, particularly S.Africa. Africa will also probably give you your best chance of a job some day to???

Hope am of some help,

Cubby,

I have an interest in this type of flying also. I have been doing a little bit of research into the area with minimul success

I do however have some websites that may be of interest they offer a little info.

agairupdate.com is proberly the best.

With regards to the other reply, I hope this is not the case. I think it looks like a fantastic way to fly, real flying, not managing a computer !

Perhaps, Cubby you would like to share any further info you may find with me and pprune members ?

All the best in your search and good luck.

Buster
