Schweizer G-164B Ag-Cat. Has been sitting at Lenawee County Airport since late July/early August. Has wing and engine damage.

Registered in July 1989.

A PT-6A Turbo engined conversion of the Schweitzer Agcat Operated by AG Flyers Inc.

Built in 1976 and imported in 1985. At this time it was Virden/MB based, but overwintering here by the look of it. In 2009 it was exported to Paraguay. (On this bitterly cold (but calm) day I flew the 120 miles from Winnipeg in the Skyhawk behind. The trick was to keep the camera from freezing otherwise the film could break when wound and static discharge flashing, due to low humidity, could ruin the image.)

This 1986 built model is equipped with GPS to position the aircraft on each spray swath. This replaces the traditional ground based flag-man and paper ejection automatic flag-man on earlier models.

A PT6A turbine engined conversion of the Grumman Ag-Cat. Owned by Onstott Dusters Inc. of Yuba City, California. At rest between crop-dusting tasks at its base in Sutter County Airfield, a mile south of Yuba City, California. In July 2008, the aircraft survived substantial damage in a forced landing in the local vicinity following engine failure during a crop dusting task, when it hit a field ditch, lost its undercarriage, and nosed over.

Operated by Haley Flying Service.

This aircraft overturned on landing near Finley, NSW, on 1 November 1990. It's now at the back of the hangar awaiting its turn as a long-term restoration project. Manufactured in 1976 and originally registered N48457, it seems to have come to Australia and been re-registered VH-LCI in 1990, having its accident shortly afterward.

This aircraft entered the Australian register around 1990 and was photographed at Finley in NSW. was originally registered in the USA as N48457. Scanned from a Kodak slide.
