My own take on a crop duster. Always basic but amazing.
I've styled this one like a glider tow plane as you can see by the rear view mirror on the left wing.

Using:
Take off when the tail wheel lifts off the ground or you will find that the plane has a mind of its own. Landing is simple, land as usual.
Enjoy!
Thanks to @luciozanassi for those mirror finish parts!

    I see you pulled up all the way down the runway and when you were going straight on that uncontrollable pitch up you put full roll controls on. 😃😱 @TTHHSSSS

    This is the glider that I go on. Still not me in the front; but that's my instructor in the back.

    @Liquidfox If you look at this video, you will see the Piper Pawnee that I copied of to make my Piper Pawnee and you will be able to see where I fly! P.S. You won't be able to see my house as it is over that foresty mountain range over there.
    This isn't me.

    @Liquidfox I glide at Papawai Airfield. Even though it's just a grass strip, it has 2 gliding clubs there. Wairarapa Gliding Club and Wellington Gliding Club.

    Well, you have a huge long runway, with a winch at the opposite end of the runway as you are. When the winch starts, it sends you to about 45 knots. When you take off, you pitch up to about 40° up till the guy watching you on the walky talky next to the winch tells you to detach. On mine you usually end up at about 1,500 feet. Want more explaining? @Liquidfox

    No. I don't. I go up in the club gliders. They are ASK-13s. Also, the club I am in goes up with a winch. Another club on the same airfield has the plane really. @Liquidfox
