I can remember as a kid watching a crop duster spraying our potatoes. He was not going under the transmission lines but he was going under the distribution lines. They are only about 25-30 feet high around here but,he also had to clear a fence that was about 4.5' high. This guy was crazy when he sprayed. As I watched him there were a couple of passes where he was so low that the landing gear was taking off potato vines.
