Crop Dusters & Agricultural types?

I've always liked the Boeing Stearman 75 crop dusters. I posted one in the freeware topic. It's a real pleasure to fly and very realistic.

Are there any other realistic crop duster or agricultural type planes that anyone can recommend?
 
Over on Flightsim.com, you will find a series of Air Tractor 802 by Brian Gladden.

Xavier Gasso has an Air Tractor 401, also on Flightsim.com

Stuart Green has a FS2002 AT-301 (at301.zip on Flightsim)...haven't tried it YET.

Marcel du Plessis has a Grumman G-164A Ag-Cat (g164a.zip on flightsim)..again, haven't tried it YET.

PZL-106 BT Turbo "Raven" for FS 2004 by Zbyszek Urbanowski.

It is a pretty nice exterior visual model but I don't think it has a VC, and as well I remember it was not great on frame rates. The model looks very nice though. Was a sprayer, duster, and also dropped fire retardant.
 
OleBoy there was also a fairly nice Cessna 188 Ag Wagon that looked fairly proportionate and flew pretty well. Has a VC I think. Has a nice orange/white/black agwagon factory like paint scheme on it.

I didn't see the name of the author in the zip, but the zipfile is Ces188.zip
 
This is very strange. I downloaded and installed the PZL-106 BT Turbo Raven. All the files are in their correct places. I can't find it under Create A Flight
 
Found it. PZL-106 BT Turbo Raven was under EADS-PZL :kilroy:

This one is nice also. Just wish there was a VC. The photo real panel and exterior is nice too. Not bad at all on frames:ernae:
 
Is not freeware, but nice addon CeraSim.

Is not freeware, but nice addon at CeraSim

I saw that while I was searching for ces188.zip. Agwagon & Agtruck came up in Google. I considered getting it. But to me it looks like the same model as JR Lucrany did? It sure looks nice though.
 
Where can I see more photos? I checked Cerasim website. This is not even mentioned to buy it.
 
Finally found it again via Google. Sim Market is a reseller. Seeing the amount of detail modeled in is a lure. And, a nice attraction. A paint kit is also available. Which is drawing my attention a whole bunch. From the looks of all the features and the quality of detail in the pictures, $22.00 doesn't sound bad at all. Decisions, decisions :kilroy:

Are there any other repaints out there anywhere?
 
Don't forget the wonderful New Zealand made Fletcher series ...
