A crop dusting aircraft in a dive approach to a field of crops while passing in very near proximity to a large corrugated metal grain elevator in a small Midwestern United States community. Crop dusting pilots exist in a dangerous profession while providing pest control to farming communities. Pilots performing crop dusting face dangers from low-altitude flying, including a higher risk of collision with power lines, birds and structures. They may also be exposed to toxic chemicals, and typically use unimproved landing strips.
