Abstract
Britten-Norman started out as converters of Tiger Moths for export to New Zealand as top-dressers. As new aircraft came into that particular scene (Cessna 180s) we turned our attention to spray equipment. As luck would have it during our researches into available ground spraying techniques, I ran into Edward Bals who had perfected some very simple rotating gauze atomisers to make possible ultra low volume spraying applications upon, for example, orchards.Thanks to the efficiency of his rotary atomiser he was able to dispense with almost all the carrier liquid of which hundreds of gallons were used on each acre to secure proper coverage by substituting a mist of small uniform sized droplets carried in a dratt (not a blast) of air.
