Attention Operators! Please take a few minutes to complete NAAA’s End-of-Season Survey. As a Part 137 operator, your input helps assess the season’s performance and we will share results in an upcoming issue of Agricultural Aviation magazine. The survey takes about 10 minutes to complete. If you didn’t receive the email, contact Lbarber@agaviation.org to request your survey link. Thank you for your participation.
When low-flying planes catch the public’s attention, it’s an opportunity to share the story behind agricultural aviation. NAAA member Matt Crabbe of Matt Crabbe Aviation is doing just that in a recent feature by The Central Virginian, helping readers understand the precision, safety standards and conservation benefits behind the work aerial applicators do every day. Positive public awareness starts with education!www.facebook.com/share/p/19o7J4uk7b/
Aerial applicators appreciate the work of all farmers every day and especially today on National Farmers’ Day. Aerial applicators are honored to treat approximately 28% (127 million acres) of U.S. cropland and a lot more when you consider they also treat forests for timber, pasture and rangeland, and seed cover crop by air. Thank a farmer and ag pilot for the food on your table today!
