Caught an aerial top dressing plane in action one morning on Brunswick Road, Whanganui, New Zealand. The conditions were perfect – both for the plane and for taking photos. The airstrip for reloading was only a kilometre away enabling the plane to make many passes in a short time. The dives into and out of the gully were spectacular but the horses weren’t so sure.
