1/8-1/4 of a miles from your previous course
Aerial application equipment is calibrated according to
what metric? - .....ANSWER ...✔✔ APM or Acres per

DGPS-mediated flow controllers do what? - .....ANSWER
...✔✔ Adjust flow dependent on aircraft speed
Application height is the distance between what two
things? - .....ANSWER ...✔✔ nozzle tip/spreader exit
plant canopy
Small droplet sprays require what sort of application
heights? - .....ANSWER ...✔✔ Application heights of
8-10ft above canopy for droplet sizes in the 150-200
micron range
What sort of water could you use for spray pattern
testing? - .....ANSWER ...✔✔ Dyed water
,3|Page
When spray pattern testing with oil based test liquid,
what sort of cards should be used? - .....ANSWER
...✔✔ Oil sensitive cards
Effective swath is: - .....ANSWER ...✔✔ The span of
the spray pattern that contains enough pesticide to
obtain the desired result/pest control
Overall swath is: - .....ANSWER ...✔✔ The outermost
range that spray droplets within your pattern will reach
but are not enough to result in satisfactory pest control
In what type of outdoor conditions is it best to perform
spray pattern testing? - .....ANSWER ...✔✔ Low wind
conditions generally in the morning, if winds are
measurable, fly the aircraft INTO the wind to conduct
spray pattern testing.
What is the first thing you should do prior to conducting
a spray operation? - .....ANSWER ...✔✔ Scout the
target site from the air to identify obstacles, terrain, and
field layout
What should you specifically look for when scouting a
field aerially prior to an application? - .....ANSWER
, 4|Page
...✔✔ Breaks in cultivation or plant cover, trees,
buildings, telephone poles, guy wires etc.
Guy wires generally pull in which direction in relation to
circuitry wire? - .....ANSWER ...✔✔ The OPPOSITE
side
What must you determine about nearby buildings
assumed to have electricity? - .....ANSWER ...✔✔ The
route by which they get their electricity
If there is an obstruction beside a field, how should it be
handled? - .....ANSWER ...✔✔ Fly close and parallel
to the obstruction
If there is an obstruction at the end of a field, how
should it be handled? - .....ANSWER ...✔✔ One or
two swath widths prior to reaching the obstruction, cut
off spray and pull up. After those passes are complete,
fly one or two parallel clean up passes to catch the
swaths you cut off early for.
What are the different types of ground crew members?
- .....ANSWER ...✔✔ -On site field crew
