Extract

‘Testing distribution equipment’ is a simple enough tide, deceptively so, and the superficial simplicity of our subject has in my view been misleading and somewhat detrimental to agricultural aviation development. With this remark made, I will now try to justify it and explain why I think that testing is in fact reasonably complex, even though, because the physical mechanisms are usually straightforward, the subject appears to be more simple than it really is.

Firstly, I would like to take a moment to consider the meaning of the two words ‘distribution’ and ‘testing’.
