Ahoy!
My name is Jimbo, a New Zealand based Ag pilot. Join me and see what's up in the world of Ag flying and aviation.
Hooroo 🙂

Can you name them all, in order? Can you name them all, in order?
A bucket list trip to the Gallipoli Peninsula, Tur A bucket list trip to the Gallipoli Peninsula, Turkey, and for any Kiwi or Aussie, something of a right of passage. Standing on ground that once separated two armies, now just a quiet asphalt road, it's impossible not to feel the weight of what happened here. Even after more than a century, the trenches still scar the hillsides, reshaped only by time and weather. Raw, unpolished, and all the more powerful for it.
It's a humbling experience in every sense. You find yourself lost in thought almost immediately, quietly grappling with what those young men, from both sides, endured in this place. And that's the thing that strikes me: the Turks feel it just as deeply. Buses full of Turkish visitors arrive to honour their own, paying their respects with the same quiet reverence.

There's something almost otherworldly about it all. And yet, strangely, it feels like home.

Thanks to CAC Young Eagles for having me speak la Thanks to CAC Young Eagles  for having me speak last night.

I shared my journey from CPL to firebombing - and yes, we absolutely took a mandatory break to watch the Emirates A380 depart. Some things are non-negotiable 😉

Young Eagles is a brilliant programme for 14-18 year olds serious about aviation, giving real exposure to industry pathways and opportunities.

Hello,

My name is Jimbo.

If you ever find yourself pulling a bee sting out with your bare hands, be sure to wash them before eating lunch.

Join me as we dive into the world of fertiliser topdressing across the breathtaking landscapes of Otago, New Zealand. In this video, I share my experience of flying at low levels over the rugged terrains, demonstrating what's required to spread fertilizers effectively. I also discuss the lightbar system, a game-changer in ensuring accuracy during our applications.
Our first guest!! This fine gentleman has worked in several countries around the world. From bush flying in the Outback Australia, to the cool temperatures of Canada, and flying up and down Nepal's Himalayan mountain range. Join us as we catch up with his adventures. 

**WARNING** there's a bit of poo chat in here, if that puts you off you may like to consider listening while not eating.
It's been a couple of weeks since our last catch up, so we spent our time catching up! Talking our usual pilot bambles, with a bit of banter to boot.
