Mosquitos and the Cessna Skymaster

JaceTheAce · September 2nd, 2005, 21:49

I love watching this guy sweep back and forth at 300 feet AGL or so. It's about time he come back and spray for mosquitos!

Has anyone flown a Cessna 327 Skymaster (aka scaremaster)?

Is that what was going on a couple hours ago? I kept hearing it but never saw it. The first buz scared the crap out of me. I sounded like an old mustang to me kind of. Then it started to sound more like a warrior. I was thinking man oh man, some student is gona get it!

I wish the C-130 would be out spraying. God it was great hearing that thing pass by this summer.

What have you been up to Matt?

I had the craziest night last night, ffing amazing.

Yeah the C-130 is so cool to watch. I kinda wonder how they watch out for towers because they're flying so low.

One time I was driving down 32nd Ave South and the C-130 came from the south unexpectantly...I had the sunroof open and it really caught me off guard. It sounded so cool!

AngelFuree · September 3rd, 2005, 21:54

I'll be in Albert Lea for an aerobatic competition and in between that, I'll be in MSP visiting a new lady friend I met last weekend.

Is the pestiside that skymaster sprays toxic on us. on top of that we have simplot, the coal that gives us heat, the train smell, lagoon smell, and this other radom smell.

UAL747400 · September 8th, 2005, 21:30

I dont think all that spraying did a damn thing except force all the mosquitoes inside. I work at menards and was swatting at those damn things all friggen day.

Was anyone out at the airport tuesday night around 8? Jesus christ, they were thick out on the ramp. Why weren't they flying around the lights like they're supposed to. It was satisfactory, however, getting out after the flying and seeing the front of the plane colored brown from dead bugs though.

airplanerik · September 9th, 2005, 01:37

Yeah...They are ESPECIALLY bad out at the airport. I have done like 3 night cross countries in the past week, and have been eaten alive all three times. It is like they come out of nowhere. 7:30...no mosquitos...7:40...no mosquitos...7:50...no mosquitos...8:00...YOU BETTER START RUNNING.
