Planes galore overhead in Walgett w/ farmers aerial baiting after the first signs of mouse damage in crops. The message is go hard now to stop mice breeding up to become even worse than before, as predicted. A hugely promising, valuable crop currently growing. How’s the branding!

Good article - thanks for tweeting. AAAA safety courses have been teaching this to ag and fire pilots since 1998. A better understanding of HF and how this translates to real world actions and decisions is critical to keep improving safety. #ausav
