Love these videos Scott. Give us more :-) Long videos of undedited footage with nothing but the sound of the plane would be awesome too! I can watch this stuff for a long time.
Love aviation. I have been working on airplanes and helicopters for over 20 years. I have flown a few hours on the books when I was going for my pilots license didn’t finish but you’re videos are encouraging me to finish.
Nice Scott. Love the turbine Brave. Here in Ms most guys fly Airtractor 602s or 802s some Thrushs. I got to fly in a 602 a couple times years ago (yep single seat) totally amazing! Hope to see you in the 🦊 soon!
Another awesome video Scott! Best camera footage from an Ag plane on TH-cam. Love the narration on what you’re spraying and why. I’m in ag research so it’s neat to compare what you’re doing to what we’re doing. Keep the videos coming.
I was thinking that country looked familiar, and then I saw the Hogeye and Woodworth's strip. Great video! Do you like the helmet? What is it and where did you pick it up? I would like one for Super Cub flying.
Needed more of the Shelton work! Missed you out there. Rathole will wait! I’m trying to go down to Nevada. First flight there in the KF4b SpecialEffects. Still putting a flight plan together
Awasome.. Crop dusting to elevator music... Is so calming it make it look like I too can live life on the edge 6ft 100kn off the deck... Haha kidding if I was flying the new camera would be f#@k%d hahaha
Damn, and I have trouble just holding ground effect over a nice flat runway. Maybe its just that I'm near stall for TO and landing and its wouldn't be as bad at a modest speed. I'm also on the west side so large trees, steep hills, and populated areas along with all the extra airspace layers. hard to even imagine a runway with any significant clearway.
Crop flying...that sh*t aint no joke...lol. How else can you fly under powerlines. Only step up from here is a Red Bull air races pilot I'd think...haha.
Maybe you should talk to Grumman about an external fuel tank. I'll bet that you aren't the only Ag pilot that is sick to death of 100 mile cross country legs. Who in the world gives this video a thumbs down? Maybe we should stuff those two trolls in the cockpit and leave them at 5K. Happy days Must not like to eat, either.
Why are crop duster planes low wingers and pretty much never high wingers? I'm missing something, there must be a reason. I thought the visibility is better from a high winger.
nvm, the engine design is from the 60s and the plane design is a slightly modified 50s design...fuel efficiency was clearly not on the top design criteria...
@@ScottPalmerair *newly built, but the design is still from the 60s ;-) So does the plane fly slow or do you need to keep a large safety reserve that you can only do 100 mile hops?
ha.. i got caught sprayin on a solo permit......on my own place though not for hire...instructor was a tad livid...its a cub yer sposed to spray with em..lol
@@f.dt.f3965 I knew a guy that rode motorcycles for 40 years on a learners permit. Somehow talked his way out of tickets.(although had his license totally revoked numerous times for drunk driving, racing, fighting cops, etc. Not a close friend, he was just that wildman in a small town who everybody seems to be loosely acquainted with, spends a few nights per year sleeping in the local holding cell.)
@@mytech6779 ya i kinda grew up in the backseat of that cub can remember riding with Dad when he had a small load to apply ...fun times.. he was commercially rated..never sprayed for hire that i know of but had the paperwork to.
Great flying, thanks for bringing us along! Can't find "Whiskey Creek" on the chart - snoopin' your foreflight it looks to be near Waitsburg? ;-) I spend a lot of summer weekends flying sailplanes out of Ephrata, WA [excepting in 2020, of course]... Will have to work my way over to your neck of the woods and give it a wave next summer!
He was flying out of S94 (Port of Whitman Business Air Center), so I'm not sure why he's referring to it as "Whiskey Creek". Maybe it was a misidentification somewhere? (94E is Whiskey Creek airport down in New Mexico.)
Interesting, I always thought Farmers did their own crop dusting. So they pay people to do it for them, are you a pay by job basis or a contract with these Farmers? If it is a contract, what's the farthest you've gone to complete a job?
Back in the late 80's we would load the 600hp ag cat with every pound it would take and still (crossing fingers) get off the ground, to the end in the mud pit we called it full throttle hold the brakes and off ya go clear to the other end (2650ft) and out under the lines! (asking the pilot how was that for weight? he says not to heavy not to light i got off the ground so it was JUST RIGHT! (back when it was seat of your pants flying no scales avionics that work half the time )
Am not ready yet for an AG pilot since having to interrupt my last emergency landing descent due to power lines. Did not want to find out, if to pass them above or below just for training.
Love your channel.. Nice helmet never use microfiber cloth on it to put real fine swirl marks in it only use 100% cotton on those goggles that are integrated into that helmet.
Here in Davenport washington. I don't farm. But my house is on 5 Acer's. With 1000s Acer's of my neighbors wheat around my property. Every year. I get a free air show. From our local crop duster. Got pic of his plane 100 feet off the top of my roof. Cool as hell.
Hey Scott! I was stationed at Fairchild AFB twice and spent a lot of time cruising around the Palouse. I really miss watching those endless wheat fields turn from seas of green to gold.
Loved the intro...and you are quite the skilled pilot, Scott. Been watching you ever since you lost the bet with Trent...and grateful that you did. Fun to fly vicariously with you and all the guys.
Dude nice work! I grew up in Independence and used to refuel all the cropdusters during the summer months! Best time of the year when you guys would fill the ramp! Keep up the hard work!
Man, all that's pretty fancy bling. My father had an old underpowered Agwagon, no helmet or fancy visor, light bar, or flat fields. '70s was still old school. Looks way easier now.
Scott, I gave you a shoutout on Mentor Pilot’s Aviation TH-camr shoutout video. I hope he sees your incredible channel man. Fly safe my winged friend. o7
Had to pause the video 41 seconds in.
Hit like.
Missed your videos. Love all your content wing suits flying the whole lot!!
Good to see a Scott Palmer video!
I want to see a Cory Robin and Scott Palmer video soon
@@ScottPalmerair Pluss Freedomfox!!!
Scott Palmer you Trent Palmer bro ??
@@domniezi9550 ???
I flew with a Captain/Chief pilot who started out as a crop duster. He was the best pilot I ever flew with . Now I know why. Stay safe...
WOW that landscape, looks a bit like that green Windows XP Background
The man, the myth, the legend....
Love these videos Scott. Give us more :-) Long videos of undedited footage with nothing but the sound of the plane would be awesome too! I can watch this stuff for a long time.
Aerial Spraying gives a new meaning to being "Dusty in the Morning" Great video! Now let's get Dusty!
bro, you guys are NUTS.
Some of the coolest flying in the world ! Keep making videos !
This is such a COOL video! Inspired! 😎
Love the new intro and the tail camera! Keep it up, we enjoy riding along.
That shot taking off, starting at 1:50, stunning!
Scott Palmer productions, HELL YEAH!!! 😎
Those Hill clips are insane. Hard life!!
Those are some amazing shots of flying close over the fields. Well done!
Love aviation. I have been working on airplanes and helicopters for over 20 years. I have flown a few hours on the books when I was going for my pilots license didn’t finish but you’re videos are encouraging me to finish.
Kickass video! Great work as always, Scott.

That dusting looks intense at times. Bad ass video.
Love music! Artistic way to fly...
I spray in Northern NY with a ground unit and we have some hilly fields but nothing like that!
What a cool Job Scott. that's what I called Life under the wires:). Keep up the good work, because the world can go hunger with out corn.
The only 9 camera crop-dusting videos I've ever seen. :)
Awesome, footage.
Thought I saw you where using Hooker Harness. Made right here in town. (thank you) Great video - great flying. take care and be safe. Spin
Only youtuber with top tier background music
Great POV, Scott! Reminds me of the speeders on Hoth!
Awesome video man! Keep up the great content.
Such sick footage well done Scott!! Keep livin the dream!! Or livin the COVID nightmare depending on where you’re at.
Very good camera:)
I used to know that Navion on Auburn airport. I remember when it had its last overhaul. Learned to fly in Walla Walla.
1200 acre a day avg? wow... killing it.. going to have to give up your "Chemtrail" job... awesome new video camera...
Amazing camera work and edit. That music is perfect! Can you share who did the music?
I was thinking that country looked familiar, and then I saw the Hogeye and Woodworth's strip. Great video! Do you like the helmet? What is it and where did you pick it up? I would like one for Super Cub flying.
I live in waitsburg scott. I was a loader for val and his dad way back when. haha
Needed more of the Shelton work! Missed you out there. Rathole will wait! I’m trying to go down to Nevada. First flight there in the KF4b SpecialEffects. Still putting a flight plan together
It's coming in the next VLog
All those power lines....................................
I LIKE IT!!!
i remember when you jumped out of a plane without a parachute
me too
Awasome.. Crop dusting to elevator music... Is so calming it make it look like I too can live life on the edge 6ft 100kn off the deck... Haha kidding if I was flying the new camera would be f#@k%d hahaha
Did you know Jim Harris out of Goldendale ?
Damn, and I have trouble just holding ground effect over a nice flat runway. Maybe its just that I'm near stall for TO and landing and its wouldn't be as bad at a modest speed. I'm also on the west side so large trees, steep hills, and populated areas along with all the extra airspace layers. hard to even imagine a runway with any significant clearway.
what a strange
esthetic, it's something i've never seen before
it's beautiful !
Hey Scott!! What was the song that came in on your takeoff roll at 1:56? Love the beat!
Keep up the great videos. You earned my subscription!!
I would not want to get into a dogfight with this guy
Why has the quality dropped down to only 360p ?
Can you explain how you know where to spray ?
Looks like you are using 38F or something like that, as a drift agent
Looked like a Navion in the background.
Sure was
That's alot of farm land
Crop flying...that sh*t aint no joke...lol. How else can you fly under powerlines. Only step up from here is a Red Bull air races pilot I'd think...haha.
Can you provide a link for that new helmet? I would like something similar for the ParaMotor!
Google Bonehead composites
@@ScottPalmerair perfect! Thank you kindly!

Must not like to eat, either.
Pretty sure I know the skydiving op, starts with a k in a town that starts with s?
What’s the song?
How do you get a job like this?! Awesome video!
You're my favorite Palmer. Also, let's trade jobs.
Looks like your flying through the old pc screen saver

@@TheManFromFUNCLE Hmm...I don't buy it, 4 feet wouldn't make a difference.
@@TheManFromFUNCLE Oooh, burn!
First rule in crop dusting, what comes out of the airplane, will all eventually fall to the ground
80gal for 100 miles? I understand it's a gas turbine, but where does all the fuel go???
nvm, the engine design is from the 60s and the plane design is a slightly modified 50s design...fuel efficiency was clearly not on the top design criteria...
It’s a new 675 horsepower turbine that burns 49 gallons per hour
@@ScottPalmerair *newly built, but the design is still from the 60s ;-)
So does the plane fly slow or do you need to keep a large safety reserve that you can only do 100 mile hops?
Ag planes are sketch!
love from pakistan
Dude LOVE the camera work! That’s the best I’ve seen in a crop dusting video by far! 🤙
Thanks, It's not easy flying and filming
So clear and the flying skill is absolutely amazing.
Just got my private. Now I’m working on my commercial so I can crop dust in the Texas panhandle hopefully
That's awesome, Keep it up soon we will be spraying lines next to each other

5:14 Holeeey sheeeeet. Possibly the best edit I've ever seen in any aviation vlog.
Scottt, this is one of the best ag flying videos I've ever watched. Just a couple of choppy cuts, but otherwise, superb!
9:32 Holy Shit! Been a long time since my eyes could do that.
Budget Ryan Reynolds the cropdusting legend
What's the little propeller under the fuselage behind the engine? Looks like a ram air turbine 4:02
It’s the pump for the boom
Took me two years to reach 116 hours. Two weeks, wow! Great video Scott.
Mrsournotes was thinking the same thing. Goal is to fly the SkyWagon 100 hrs yr. that’s crazy to do in 2 weeks
Great job but that plane has to be the most ugly thing ever to fly !
Yup Grumman Ag Cat utilitarian workhorse
Really like the crop dusting videos, you are showing great vloging /filming skills. Keep it coming please.
The only crop dusting I've ever done was in the grocery store. I better up my game.
nice !
Love your channel..
Nice helmet never use microfiber cloth on it to put real fine swirl marks in it only use 100% cotton on those goggles that are integrated into that helmet.
Just had to say, the camera work was awesome! Subbed and looking forward to more videos in the future. :)

What settings do I use on Flight Sim 2020 to get it to look like yours
Loved the intro...and you are quite the skilled pilot, Scott. Been watching you ever since you lost the bet with Trent...and grateful that you did. Fun to fly vicariously with you and all the guys.
Dude nice work! I grew up in Independence and used to refuel all the cropdusters during the summer months! Best time of the year when you guys would fill the ramp! Keep up the hard work!
Good lord that was rad!
Wow Scott, your flying skills are on point. Please keep your eyes out for those power lines. Stay safe!
Nicely done brother! See ya back in Idaho for a little BC flying.
Man, all that's pretty fancy bling. My father had an old underpowered Agwagon, no helmet or fancy visor, light bar, or flat fields. '70s was still old school. Looks way easier now.
How 'bout that old Navion in the background at 1:06 . N4874K
Abandoned years ago... is it yours?
That turbine Cat is just the shit! Super vid!
Off-topic ...
But have you thought about setting you alarm/phone ringtone to the theme tune of 'North by Northwest' ...?
OK, bad joke is bad ...
When you fly so low for so long the bugs strip the paint off.
This is great! So inspirational. Wish me luck. I want to make a career in aerial application. 🙏🏾 thank you ! 208, on the ground !
Scott, I gave you a shoutout on Mentor Pilot’s Aviation TH-camr shoutout video. I hope he sees your incredible channel man. Fly safe my winged friend. o7
