I had a crop duster fly over my house awhile back. Never seen one dusting before, I sat on my house roof for the whole afternoon watching. ;D

Nice catch! You can be happy you atleast got a shot!

I was driving home a few days ago from a nearby city, and whilst looking to the left in the far distance i noticed a different kind of plane, i took a closer look, and a minute later i was able to identify it as the AN-124! Didnt have a camera though :(.

What's this plane called? Isnt it also used for towing gliders?

That's awesome that he took a minute for your benefit... dusting is a tough way to make a living, and "time is money".  8-)
