avbug said:Many, many times I've elected to use a different runway than what others are using, and rightfully so. Most of the time, all the little weekend lemmings flying the "active runway" see the light and switch runways, but not always so. Do I care? No.
avbug said:Don't patronize me. It does little to engender a good disposition on my part
Uhhh...sure. try the next sentence.mattpilot said:Could you please highlight the words where it says that an ag user may also deviate from rules when he is conducting any operations not involving dispensing?
Maybe an airport with an active ag operation isn't the place to be soloing students.Stinkbug said:A pattern full of soloing student pilots and 300-hour flight instructors is not the place to be doing your own thing.

avbug said:I guess you missed the part of 14 CFR 137.29(c) that says,
§ 137.29 General.
(c) The holder of an agricultural aircraft operator certificate may deviate from the provisions of Part 91 of this chapter without a certificate of waiver, as authorized in this subpart for dispensing operations, when conducting nondispensing aerial work operations related to agriculture, horticulture, or forest preservation in accordance with the operating rules of this subpart.
Gotta love that radio. It probably looks for traffic better than you do.
Do me a favor, though. Don't make any radio traffic calls on my behalf.
Snakum said:He has a TCAS monkey to do traffic watch for him when he's spraying, so everyone was safe, whether they knew it or not. The monkey sleeps most of the time, but when Avbug is heading for the airport, the monkey grabs the sides of the seat from behind, pulls himself forward so that his chin is actually resting on Avbug's noggin, and the little feller keeps his head on a constant 225 degree swivel. When he sees traffic he gives a little screech, which get louder and more urgent the closer the aircraft is to Avbug and his TCAS monkey. When he sees Flight Instructors giving primary dual he goes absolute ape $hit, so Avbug was, of course, in a hurry to get on the ground to shut the little bastidge up.

It's unbelievable that a lot of you are taking up for these guys. Evidently, you haven't had much personal experience with them.
