25.01.2022 If you are in the Riverina, please get behind this important event.

23.01.2022 Dauntless Air held its annual company training last week in Mineral Wells, Texas. CEO Brett L'Esperance got the opportunity to get a front row seat of the Fire Bosses in flight. Think how effective this team could be fighting a fire!

23.01.2022 Finally a good break in the weather and a dry strip. We paired up an Air Tractor, Inc. AT-502B and AT-504 today in South West Victoria to make the best of it. Tracking via the TracPlus RockAir unit.

22.01.2022 Congratulations to Leighton Wraith on this very well deserved recognition of his years of service.

21.01.2022 We made a little person's day!

19.01.2022 In case you missed it, yesterday was National Agricultural Day. Aerial agriculture plays a vital role in the production of food and fibre across our great Nation. #GrowForGood

19.01.2022 Aircraft play a key role in the nutrition management of rice crops across the Riverina region of NSW.

19.01.2022 With a small water allocation available (15%), it was great to see our first rice sowing job of the season completed in the Riverina yesterday. More rice to be sown over coming weeks.

19.01.2022 Fingers and toes crossed! Hopefully a break to the dry conditions coming this way.

18.01.2022 When water is available, the rice industry generates around $800 million revenue per annum, with around $500 million of this coming from value-added exports, making it Australias 3rd largest cereal grain export, and the 9th largest ag export

18.01.2022 It is #NationalAgricultureWeek, and a good time to reflect on how much we all depend on Americas farmers, ranchers and dairy producers. From our birds eye vie...w, we have watched producers become more efficient with resources and time. In fact, todays farmers produce twice as much food as the previous generation, while using less land, less energy and water. So as you say grace around the table this evening, say a prayer for our nations farmers and livestock producers. They are up early every day, working to put a safe, affordable bounty of food on our tables while preserving the land for the next generation. #airtractor #ThankAFarmer

18.01.2022 Vale Fred Meeker (1948-2019) Field Air are profoundly saddened at the recent passing of Fred Meeker, a former member of the Field Air maintenance team. Fred worked for Field Air in our hangar over the past 10 years and was a terrific colleague and friend to many. His easy attitude and happy smiling presence will be sadly missed.... Condolences from all at Field Air go to Teresa and the extended Meeker family.

17.01.2022 Training day for CFA (Country Fire Authority) loading crew at Kerang last weekend. Thanks to the Kerang crew from CFA District 20 who made B362 and pilot Stephen Rossington feel welcome.

17.01.2022 Thanks to the Deni Field Air team. Paul Thomas Russell Jordan Lach has loved watching the team at work from day one and can hear Russell coming long before we can see. This is what I will miss about our community, the team work and inclusiveness that we are all in this together.

15.01.2022 Springtime in Western Victoria! Won't be much spraying or spreading happening today.

15.01.2022 That time of the year again and the 2019 Deni Ute Muster is underway - this event provides a welcome annual boost to the Deniliquin economy. However, whilst there is water in the channel surrounding the Ute Muster site, the seasonal outlook for both dryland and irrigated agriculture remains very grim throughout the Riverina and beyond.

15.01.2022 Paying respects to Mr Peter Furlong the co-founder of GippsAero. We, along with the rest of the aircraft community will remember him fondly for his immense contribution to the field.

15.01.2022 Some fantastic crops in the Wimmera and Mallee this spring - one of our AT-402B aircraft was out and about yesterday.

13.01.2022 May 27 is International Crop-Dusters Day! To say that these pilots impact our everyday lives would be an understatement. From the clothes on our backs, to the ...food on our tables, to the fuel in our cars, our lives would not be the same without the hard work of ag aviators around the globe! #InternationalCropDustersDay #AirTractor #ThankADuster See more

11.01.2022 An excellent article on managing soil compaction.

09.01.2022 Aerial Application or "crop dusting" has its origins in the 1920's and Tocumwal aerodrome has been used as a base for crop dusting operations since the 1950's. ... We're proud to be able to showcase a significant part of Australian aerial application history with some historic and uniquely Aussie crop dusters from the 1950s, 60s and 70s with the CAC Ceres and Transavia Airtruk as well as the iconic yellow Air Tractor...or orange and white in the case of Dusty Crophopper! We're grateful for the support and contribution of Field Air, Hazair Pty Ltd and Classic Air to make this display possible #fieldair #hazair #classicair #tocumwalairshow
