Lovely footage. And a nice deviation from trucking. Farming is a great way of life. I grew up around dairy. Went to Ag college. And finished up in construction. Worse job. Usually more money. The first combines I went on as a kid in the 60s. The header was so small you could drive it down the street with the header still on. Now look at them.

David Hunn Well, that certainly was different...and interesting. Going back to what the harvester operator was saying about the difference between backpackers and grey nomads, there would be countless ex truckies and plant operators cruising around the country and mechanical sympathy is just second nature to them.

@RoadTrainAdventures

8 ай бұрын

Yes he made a lot of sense though

@jefftheaussie2225

8 ай бұрын

The big difference with operating machinery like that and trucks is you are dealing with width not length. The front on that header was over 40’ wide and he was going quickly. There is a lot to keep an eye on both in front and in the machine itself. Your head will spin. He was making it look easy just as Johnno does in his truck. Put a green horn on a header and it will cost big bucks in no time if they have no experience and are not very careful. That crop was good going, get into a heavy crop that has gone down in rocky country or has had a flood over it and it is a bit different. Jeff

1961 I was 6. Dad had a pull type combine that someone had to sit on and put the grain in burlap bags. I could tie the bags and then roll them on a chute that held 3 then you'd trip to pile. Just remembering that when I saw the dust involved.

@terrenceodgers5866 Why don't the instruments of a 'plane' take into account the curving of earth? Why don't railways line dip for the curving, why is all instruments say it's flat when engineers build these? 11,000 metres looking out of a concave screen, it will look curved, yes

@terrenceodgers5866

4 ай бұрын

I speak from experience - re - cockpit access at 11,000 metres. The curvature is unmistakable out of the flat front windows of Boeing 747. As for rail lines - the horizon is only as far as the height one is elevated at. Even looking out at Echo Point near Katoomba on a clear day, will reflect the Earth's curvature, to those who can be honest with themselves. Are you referring to guidance instruments? All guidance instruments are set to true north and align themselves from that setting so aircraft and shipping will always be guided toward their destination without fail.

So next show we might see you swappin' the Kenny for a wheat header ?
