I have seen that pic with my own eyes in the reception of said operator/AMO at FABM. I don't know the history but I can find out.

What is the registration, the date taken and where... all of these things make the pic more interesting :)

Sorry for the late reply.
I was on a conservation flight (picked up a Jackal cub) - was allowed to land on a private strip where that beut stays. Feel a bit uncomfortable to share info without consent of owner who was not present when I landed.
Forgiveness!

Hi guys , just wondering if any of you know of an attachment and know if it is possible for a weight shift microlight to spread fertilizer "kunsmiss" .

We have a game farm in the Waterberg and would like to spread some fertilizer as an experiment in areas that can't be reached by tractor.

I have seen the guys do it with planes in New Zealand on mountain areas.

Thanx
Safe flying
