Spray rate

The statement on spray rate says it "can" be adjusted to a spray rate which will apply 2000 gallons in 8.5 minutes. Although this may be true, featuring this in the mission statement implies this is the normal rate. This rate is typical of herbicide application, while the most frequent use of the squadron's planes is for applying insecticide. Insecticide is typically applied at a much lower rate and coverage would typically be over a larger area. --Lineagegeek (talk) 22:18, 3 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
