Teenage cropduster pilot accidentally sprays State Fair midway crowd
A fellow posted a Reel video showing several “chemtrails” in a perfectly blue sky around him and asked what the heck is going on. What nefarious schemes are making these mysterious trails?
I commented this is usually the result of cropdusters in the area. Because of the lack of good cropduster pilots, the industry has had to rely on teenage pilots. The problem is some are too short to properly see over the edge of the cockpit so they rely on their best guess where the rows of crops are.
Their “best guess” often has them cropdusting entirely wrong plots of land like the State Fair, the downtown area and even way over by the Old Raccoon Mountain Range. So these trails are lost teenage cropduster pilots flying without much skill (or any skill) all over here and yonder spraying anything in their path.
My cousin Austin from over to Nagadoches got hit as he got out of his old Chevy to get a pack of smokes at the general store. Said the kid was flying so low he almost took out the Esso sign completely.
