New Tax Laws for Backpackers Disastrous for Australian Farmers
Work on an Australian farm is a rite of passage for many backpackers in Australia, especially those wishing to obtain a secondary year Working Holiday Visa. Australian farmers have come to rely on backpackers as a vital source of their labour force, particularly during harvesting seasons, with backpackers making up about 35 – 40% of the seasonal workforce. However, this source of labour is now being threatened by new tax laws targeting backpackers which are set to come into effect on 1 July 2016.
Currently, the tax-free threshold applies to Working Holiday Visa holders just as it does to Australian workers, meaning they can earn up to $18,200 before they need to start paying tax. But from July this year, backpackers will lose their tax-free threshold and will pay 32.5 cents tax on every dollar they earn. This translates to them taking a pay cut from approximately $22.62 to $14.59 an hour.
The new tax which is designed to raise extra revenue for the government, will likely deter backpackers from selecting Australia as a holiday destination to begin with, especially as many backpackers already struggle to pay their travel expenses. Countries like New Zealand where backpackers don't have to pay tax will be a more attractive choice. Many Australian farmers fear that the result will be that their crops will go to waste as they won't be able to find the needed labour, effectively damaging, and in some cases, ending their businesses.
In response to the new tax, Growcom, the Queensland Farmers Federation and Cotton Australia are launching an intensive lobbying campaign to highlight the impacts on the agricultural sector. The Northern Territory Farmers Association is also involved, liaising with its sister bodies and has expressed concern on behalf of farmers.
Many travellers use their time backpacking in Australia to gain valuable work experience or explore other opportunities for permanent migration. If you're interested in finding out more about pathways to Australian residency, give us a call on +61 7 3229 4025

Dey Mansion
The Dey Mansion, located in modern day Wayne, Passaic County, New Jersey, United States, and originally known as "Bloomsbury Manor," played an integral role in the American Revolutionary War. Built by Dutch settlers in the middle of the 18th century it served as Washington's Headquarters on several occasions.

Dey Family History[]
In 1641 Dirck Janszen Siecken Dey, a soldier for the Dutch West India Company, was the first of his family to settle in the colonies. His grandson Dirck Dey, a Dutch born planter, purchased 600 acres of land in Preakness Valley, now present day Wayne Township. The exact start date of construction on the Dey Mansion is unknown, but Dirck Dey started building it in the 1740s. By 1764 Dirck passed the mansion onto his son Theunis. Theunis along with his wife, Hester Schuyler, raised ten children in the mansion. Theunis was a political figure who served on the state council by representing Bergen County and was a member of the charter trustee at Queens college, now present day Rutgers University. He also served as a Colonel in the Bergen County Militia during the American Revolution. It was during his service in the militia that he came into contact with George Washington. This led to Theunis to offer his mansion to serve as Washington's headquarters.[1][2][3]
Dey Family Crest
Washington's Preakness Valley Headquarters[]
George Washington utilized the Dey Mansion during the American Revolution as one of his many Headquarters. This area of the Preakness Valley (in New Jersey) was chosen specifically for its strategic location, as well as its abundance of food and forage in the surrounding area. On two separate occasions the Dey Mansion served as Headquarters for Washington, once from July 1 through July 28, 1780 and again from October 8 through November 27, 1780.[4]
Washington's Office
Washington's Bedroom
During his stay Washington and his advisers which included Alexander Hamilton, Robert H. Harrison, Tench Tilghman, David Humphreys and James McHenry used the four rooms on the eastern side of the mansion for their bedrooms as well as their military war rooms. Washington also had numerous visitors while at the Dey Mansion, those of which include the Marquis de Lafayette, General Anthony Wayne, Major General Lord Stirling, Benedict Arnold, General William Howe and the Marquis de Chastellux.[2]
Washington's letters and correspondences during his time at the Dey Mansion totaled 964, for over 1800 written pages. One of which informed him on July 14, 1780 that the French allied support had landed at Newport, Rhode Island. Washington left on July 28 to join them.[4]
During Washington's time away from the Dey Mansion Major, General Bendict Arnold's treason became evident and his accomplice Major John Andre was hanged in Tappan, New York on October 2. Fearing that the British commander Sir Henry Clinton would seek revenge, Washington moved his army once again to the Preakness Valley's Dey Mansion, and arrived on October 8, 1780. He stayed there until November 27, 1780 when he moved his headquarters and a portion of his army to Morristown, New Jersey.[4]
Layout of the mansion and surrounding property[]
The Dey Mansion is of Georgian style architecture with Dutch and English influences, and was built on a 600 acre lot in Preakness Valley, now present day Wayne, NJ. The Mansion was built facing the south in order receive sunlight. Each floor of the two story mansion features a long and wide center hall with multiple rooms on each side and an attic that spans the entire length of the mansion. The kitchen is located on an extension of the mansion which is separated by a stone floor hallway. Today most of the original wood frames and floors, along with some of the original furniture and art work still exist. It sits on a two acre plot of land, with features built onto the property including a blacksmith shop, plantation house and a courtyard in the middle of the three buildings.[3][4]
Dey Mansion through the years[]
Colonel Theunis Dey's oldest son General Richard Dey, sold the Mansion and 335 acres of surrounding land in 1801. Since then sixteen different families have owned the mansion and land.

Letter from FDR regarding opening of Dey Mansion to visitors
On January 10, 1930 the Passaic County Parks Commission acquired the land, and on October 8, 1934 it was opened for visitors. Among the guests invited to its opening was President Franklin D. Roosevelt, and although he was unable to attend he wrote a letter in which he said, "You have made a real contribution to the history of the nation"(See picture of letter). In 1970 the Dey Mansion was entered into the New Jersey Register of Historic Places as well as the National Register of Historic Places. As of 1987 the Dey Mansion has been open to the public as a Museum. It also acts as a meeting place and reenactment center for many historic groups such as the Hester-Schuyler-Colfax Chapter, Daughters of the American Revolution and the Sons of the American Revolution. The New Jesery Militia/Heard's Brigade also sponsors annual events at the Dey Mansion in February, October, and December.[4]

Jacob "Rusty" Martino – Deckhand
Education/Certifications: Associates degree in Criminal Justice, Associates degree in Welding Technology, STCW, Powerboat level 2, Deck Week Course
Jacob grew up in Rochester, Pennsylvania. Rochester has a small-town feel with the Ohio river passing through. During his childhood Jacob was always at the river hanging out with friends, swimming, riding jet skis, or having a cookout. Jacob's parents also had a boat as he was growing up so a lot of his time was spent on the water.
After graduating, he began a welding career but started to become complacent. Jacob realized that he wanted to travel, see the world, and experience different cultures. He didn't want to spend the rest of his life going to the same spot every day. That's when he decided to enter yachting. Jacob took his classes, quit his job, moved to Fort Lauderdale, and the rest is history.
Jacob brings a fun and upbeat attitude to every charter. He is always ready for adventure and can't wait for guests to experience new and exciting things. During his yachting career he wants to continue to see different parts of the world while meeting amazing new people along the way. He is also striving to achieve different levels of his captain's license.
While Jacob is not busy providing a one-of-a-kind experience on board, you can find him traveling to new places, hiking, riding his bicycle, or hunting.


A newly formed experiment in growing food and herbs sustainably, Sweet Belly Farm is located in Salmon, ID near the continental divide. We believe in interconnected, local food systems and bringing natural healing to people through plant medicine. We are now developing herbal healing products made with locally sourced and wildcrafted herbs. It's so exciting to tap into the healing power of native plants like yarrow, arnica, and cottonwood bud that grow wild right here in the mountains around the Salmon Valley in Idaho, and make salves, lip balms, oils, tinctures, and tea blends. We also infuse many herbs in our Jams, Jellies, and Syrups made from locally gleaned (extra) fruit that would otherwise go unused.
Cameron Rolle is grower/owner here, and she'd love to hear from you. Contact us or click on Shop Sweet Belly if your tummy is grumbling for fresh, amazing, local and organically grown produce and Jams, or you'd like to get your hands on some amazing herbal healing salves, lip balms, bath salts, or tinctures. We value the power of herbal healing, and believe in staying local, sustainable, and joyful. Read more about our values here.
Our story: In 2015 Cameron started Sweet Belly Farm, by growing produce in the Salmon Community Garden. She started going to the Lemhi County Farmer's Market and loved her central role in the garden as coordinator for the other community gardeners.
In 2016, Cameron worked with Swift River Farm, and learned much of the work and play involved in running a market produce farm and CSA (community supported agriculture) operation. She started making value-added products like jams, salves, lip balm, and tinctures with some of the herbs and fruit that she gathered in the wild and grew on the farm. She and her partner bought a beautiful piece of land that will eventually be the growing location of many of the ingredients for Sweet Belly's products. See the story of the property on our blog.
In 2017 and 2018, there was still much to help out with at Swift River Farm, but big changes were happening at Sweet Belly Farm. Cameron was busy making new products like herbal bath salts, many different kinds of jams and jellies, new salves, lip balms, and massage oils. Some of the herbs she grew and gathered were dedicated to blends of herbal tea, while others were infused into oil for the best kind of herbal skincare. On the property, the future home of Sweet Belly Farm, Cameron and her partner Tim built a garden fence, put in an irrigation well, and planted fruit trees. We can't wait to start growing herbs and see our fruit trees develop at our new location in 2019!

Exclusivity terms in zero-hours contracts
You are viewing free content from a subscription product
Croner-i is a comprehensive knowledge and resource platform that enables professionals to stay ahead of change in their industry, with legislation, trends and best practice. Call 0800 231 5199 to learn more.
Having seen the Small Business, Enterprise and Employment Act into law before he left office last May, the then Business Secretary Vince Cable may have thought that he had dealt with the problem of exclusivity terms in zero-hours contracts.
The Act made provision for banning the use of these clauses, by which some employers were stopping workers on zero-hours contracts from exploiting the flexibility they offered by also working for someone else.
The incoming Government acted quickly and, by 26 May 2015, a ban on the use of such clauses was indeed in force.
However, ministers had been alerted, during a public consultation into the proposed ban, to the fact that it would be relatively easy for employers to avoid the new restriction by, for example, reducing the hours offered to those who chose to perform other work.
That this threat was taken seriously is clear from the inclusion in the consultation document of draft regulations aimed at tackling any avoidance measures.
It was 14 December 2015 before the Exclusivity Terms in Zero Hours Contracts (Redress) Regulations 2015 were finally published and, with a 28-day implementation period, they came into force this week (11 January 2016).
Available here, the new regulations make provision in relation to the right for individuals on a zero-hours contract not to be unfairly dismissed or subjected to a detriment for a reason relating to a breach of a provision of such a contract.
Remedies, including compensation, will be available by way of proceedings in employment tribunals. It should be noted that, in general, any claim must be brought within three months of the act or failure to act to which the complaint relates.

Disgrace of 'dogs' toilet' - Letters - Todmorden News todmordennews.co.uk
I recently started walking from the centre of Todmorden towards Hebden Bridge on the canal bank, and had only reached the Lidl car park when I came across the biggest dogs' toilet I have ever seen. The canal bank has been used for what looks like a toilet for all the dogs in the town, there are piles of the stuff every few inches for about 200 yards, and then it starts to thin out. It appears that a lot of the dog owners in Todmorden have no thought for people who like to walk on the tow paths or for the appearance of the town. ...
Wiltshire volunteers for canal care gazetteandherald.co.uk

The quango, shortly to reinvent itself as a charity, is launching a new volunteering scheme to find people prepared to give up a few hours a month to help maintain the 200-year-old waterway. Mark Stephens, British Waterways' waterway manager, said: "The Kennet and Avon Canal is a beautiful stretch of waterway. Unfortunately, British Waterways has limited resources to be able to keep the canal looking good. "We hope that local people will join us to help with tasks such as cutting back overgrown vegetation so the towpath is kept clear, as well as painting lock gates and clearing litter from the canal." ...

Dispute over third Thames bridge plans getwokingham.co.uk
Conflicting plans have left neighbouring councils at loggerheads over the need for a third bridge over the River Thames. Wokingham Borough Council will approve an objection this week to the South Oxfordshire Core Strategy planning document, which states that an additional bridge is not needed and would have an adverse impact on the district. The absence of support for a third Thames bridge for the area is in conflict with Wokingham and Reading's blueprints for future housing and transport development, according to Wokingham council. ...

There are hundreds of thousands of 501(c)(3)s in the United States. Most do great work and are operated cleanly and ethically. Others … not so much.
New England Patriots Quarterback Tom Brady is rich: His estimated net worth is about $180 million or so. His wife, supermodel Giselle Bundchen, is worth almost double: about $360 million.
"Like many successful celebrities, in 2005, Tom Brady established a charity." His Change the World Foundation Trust was started as a 501(c)(3) private foundation; there was an initial contribution of just under $500,000. Brady has been the sole trustee of Change the World Foundation during the entire period.
The money coming in afterward has been from somewhere else … hold on to that for a moment.
So who is funding Tom Brady's private foundation? Most comes from Best Buddies International, the "world's largest organization dedicated to ending the social, physical and economic isolation of the 200 million people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD)," providing "friendship, jobs & leadership development," according to its website. That well-known organization was founded by JFK nephew Anthony K. Shriver. Apparently, since 2001, Tom Brady has been a major fundraiser for Best Buddies, helping to bring in some $46.5 million.
Shriver quoted Brady as saying in 2011, 'When I come to Best Buddies events, it's all about Best Buddies, which is the way I want to keep it while I develop my interests. Would you support helping me pursue my things while I continue to put a lot of energy into your thing?' Best Buddies granted $250,000 to Change the World Foundation Trust in 2011 and increased the amount in subsequent years to $500,000 annually—a practice expected to continue into the foreseeable future.
On its 2015 tax filing, Schedule L (Business Transactions Involving Interested Persons), the group writes that "board president, Thomas E P Brady, Jr, is an owner of TB12 LLC, which is the sole member of the corporation" and that "board treasurer/clerk, Jeffrey Surette, is employed as the senior vice president of TB12 LLC." The TB12 foundation has no employees; Surette, however, was paid compensation of approximately $154,000 in 2015.
The Boston Globe has been poking into these arrangements recently: "a … high profile philanthropy named for, controlled by, and identified as the charity of one person while being funded by others" and with the founder's "charitable and business concerns … uncomfortably linked." Where have we heard about that type of thing recently?
"It may be legal, but is it ethical – especially when the celebrity is filthy rich?" asks Michael L. Wyland, contributing editor to The Nonprofit Quarterly.
Case Study No. 2: Pet Peeves in L.A.
Without regard to whether the adoption fee is or is not excessive, the intrepid TV reporters learned that the Internal Revenue Service had revoked Saving Spot's tax exempt status in 2015 for failure to file required Form 990 information returns. Also, the California Attorney General's office suspended the group for failing to file required reports.
Reportedly, many of the Los Angeles pet rescue organizations are out of compliance with tax laws or otherwise engaged in some dodgy practices. The SPCA says state and local prosecutors are beginning to take a look at them.
Among the category of charities that includes a seemingly inordinate number of bad actors are animal rescue organizations. Who can resist helping a cute puppy or kitten face?
While government regulators like the IRS and the attorneys general of each state are responsible for oversight of charities, some important leads come from media folks investigating situations that don't seem quite right. Recently, David Farenthold of the Washington Post was rewarded with a Pulitzer Prize for doing just that.

New York, Just for The Brave
Curated by writer Elvira Lindo, this exhibition analyzes Manhattan from the lens of four resident Spanish photographers in the Big Apple.
Four visions of a city that demands of its inhabitants an extreme level of courage, a city that exchanges bravery for liberty, a city of pioneers. Pioneers who renew themselves in successive migrations, change the nature of the city in waves and, at the same time, keep alive its recognizable character.
What would New York be without the brave ones who inhabit it? The four participating photographers take part in this collective desire to make a space for themselves in this urban landscape. There is no city in the world that so urgently requires a spirit of conquest.

http://registry.faa.gov/N3547Q
Location: Alapaha, GA
Accident Number: ERA16FA316
Registration: N3547Q
Aircraft: CESSNA A188
Aircraft Damage: Destroyed
Defining Event: Loss of control in flight
Injuries: 1 Fatal
Flight Conducted Under: Part 137: Agricultural
On September 16, 2016, about 0915 eastern daylight time, a Cessna A188, N3547Q, was destroyed when it impacted terrain while maneuvering near Alapaha, Georgia. The commercial pilot was fatally injured. The airplane was registered to and operated by the pilot under the provisions of Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 137. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed, and no flight plan was filed for the aerial application flight, which originated from Berrien County Airport (4J2), Nashville, Georgia, about 0855.
According to a ground assistant who routinely supported the pilot during agricultural operations, the pilot planned to complete a total of three aerial application flights on the day of the accident. He reported that the pilot departed on the first flight of the day at 0715 and returned about 1 hour 15 minutes later. The assistant reported that the pilot stated, "everything seems good," and they began preparations for the second flight.
The assistant loaded about 150 to 160 gallons of chemical and water mix into the airplane's hopper, and the pilot "topped off" the single fuel tank from his personal trailer-based fuel tank. The assistant reported that the pilot intended to spray a 13-acre cotton field, which was about 14 miles north of the departure airport, a flight time of 8 to 9 minutes. He further reported that the pilot also intended to spray a 100-acre field during the flight, and that the pilot liked to spray the "larger fields first, to lighten his load" before spraying smaller fields. He added that he observed the pilot put on his shoulder harness and flight helmet and depart at 0855.
Two witnesses, located about 1/4 to 1/2 mile from the 13-acre cotton field, heard an airplane "flying back and forth" about 0915. Subsequently, the engine noise went silent, and then they heard an impact. One witness stated that the sound of impact was "5 to 10 seconds" after the engine noise went silent. Neither witness saw the airplane flying.
Certificate: Commercial
Seat Occupied: Single
Toxicology Performed: Yes
Flight Time: 449.8 hours (Total, all aircraft), 125.5 hours (Total, this make and model), 410.2 hours (Pilot In Command, all aircraft)
According to Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) airmen records, the pilot held a commercial pilot certificate with a rating for airplane single-engine land. His most recent second-class medical certificate was issued in June 2016 with no limitations. The pilot did not report his flight time on his most recent medical certificate application.
Review of the pilot's logbook revealed entries between June 5, 2013, and June 26, 2016, which indicated a total flight experience of 450 hours of which 410 hours were as pilot in command and 125 hours were in the accident airplane make and model. According to the pilot's ground assistant, the pilot had performed multiple aerial application flights in the accident airplane in the 2-week period preceding the accident, which were not recorded in the logbook. The logbook showed that the pilot's most recent flight review was on February 23, 2015.
Aircraft Manufacturer: CESSNA
Model/Series: A188 A
Airworthiness Certificate: Restricted
Serial Number: 188-0497
Landing Gear Type: Tailwheel
Engine Manufacturer: Continental
ELT: Not installed
Engine Model/Series: IO-520D-9A
Operating Certificate(s) Held: Agricultural Aircraft (137)
Operator Does Business As:
Operator Designator Code: 2JWG
According to FAA airworthiness records, the single-seat, low-wing, fixed-landing-gear airplane was manufactured in 1969 and was registered to the pilot in June 2013. It was equipped with a 300-horsepower Continental Motors IO-520-D (9A) engine and a two-blade McCauley controllable-pitch propeller.
According to airframe and engine logbooks, the most recent annual and 100-hour inspections were completed in May 2016 at a recorded tachometer time of 2,741.9 hours and 642.1 hours since engine major overhaul. Review of the logbooks indicated that between April 2013 and May 2016 a total of 23 hours were accumulated on the tachometer.
The airplane flight manual (AFM) stated that the airplane's maximum gross weight for takeoff in the restricted category was 4,000 lbs, which was 700 lbs above the normal category maximum gross weight (3,300 lbs). According to maintenance records, in June 2014, the airplane was moved from the normal category to the restricted category.
A weight calculation was completed based upon the pilot's last reported weight on his medical certificate (176 lbs), full fuel (37 gallons), the reported chemical and water mix load (155 gallons), and an estimated empty weight for the airplane of 1,910 lbs. (The airplane's actual empty weight was not found.) The calculation revealed that the airplane's takeoff weight was about 3,601 lbs, which was within the restricted category limit.
Airplane Fuel System
According to the AFM, fuel from the standard fuselage fuel tank system was supplied to the engine from a 37-gallon aluminum tank located just aft of the engine compartment firewall. Fuel flowed from the tank to a shutoff valve beneath the tank. When the shutoff valve was open and the mixture control was in the rich position with the engine running, fuel was drawn through a check valve in the auxiliary fuel pump and through the fuel strainer to the engine-driven fuel pump, where it was pumped into the fuel metering unit. In the metering unit, fuel was regulated by setting the throttle and mixture controls. The metered fuel was then pumped through the fuel distribution valve to the injection nozzles. The remainder of the unmetered fuel was returned to the engine-driven fuel pump where excess fuel and vapor were directed through a return line to the top of the fuel tank.
Restricted Category Flight Characteristics
The AFM stated, in part: "Although the airplane is capable of working at speeds from 85 MPH [miles per hour] to 120 MPH, it is suggested that a speed of 95 MPH to 115 MPH be used for very heavy loads. The use of very low airspeeds in combination with heavy loads is not recommended because it reduces the margin of safety."
The AFM further stated, in part: "The stall characteristics are conventional, and aural warning is provided by a stall warning horn which sounds between 5 and 10 MPH above the stall in all configurations. The stall is also preceded by a mild aerodynamic buffet which increases in intensity as the stall is approached. All controls remain effective throughout the stall." The AFM also stated that, "Intentional spins are prohibited in this airplane. Should an inadvertent spin occur, standard light plane recovery techniques should be used."

The weather conditions reported at Henry Tift Myers Airport (TMA), Tifton, Georgia, at 0915, located about 16 miles west of the accident site, included wind 060° at 3 knots, visibility 10 statute miles, sky condition clear, temperature 24°C, and dew point 23°C.
Crew Injuries: 1 Fatal
Aircraft Fire: On-Ground
Total Injuries: 1 Fatal
Examination of the accident site revealed that the airplane came to rest upright in an open plowed dirt field, which bordered the cotton field being sprayed, on a heading of about 115° to 120° magnetic. The wreckage path led from broken tree branches (initial impact point) to the main wreckage and was about 100 ft long on a 300° magnetic heading. All major components of the airplane were accounted for at the scene.
The fuselage exhibited impact and fire damage; however, there was no evidence of fire in flight. The left wing remained attached to the fuselage. The right wing was found twisted forward of its normal position; the fuselage was canted to the right just forward of the firewall; and the empennage displayed metal tearing to the right. The separated empennage control surfaces were found under the rear fuselage. The fixed main landing gear assemblies were separated and found in the debris field. Both flaps were found in an extended position. Flight control continuity was confirmed from the flight control surfaces to the burned outer section of the cockpit.
Examination of the cockpit revealed that the throttle control lever was about 1/3 forward from idle. The propeller control lever was found in the full forward position (high rpm). The mixture control was found pulled aft about 1 inch. The fuel shutoff valve was found in the "ON" position. The flap handle was found in a near vertical position past the flaps 20° extended position. The pilot's four-point lever-lock-style buckle was found latched with the shoulder harness buckle ends engaged in the lever lock. The instrument panel was consumed by fire. An agricultural GPS spray guidance system was found mounted in the cockpit; the device sustained fire and impact damage, and no data were recovered.
The engine remained attached to the engine mount, firewall, and control cables and was thermally damaged. Crankshaft continuity was confirmed from the propeller flange to the accessory section of the engine. Thumb compression and suction were observed on all cylinders when the propeller flange was rotated. All spark plugs were examined with no anomalies observed. Each magneto was removed and rotated manually; spark was observed at each individual ignition lead. The engine-driven fuel pump drive coupling was intact, and no anomalies were found when the pump was examined. The oil filter screen was removed from the oil pump housing, and no contaminants were found.
The fuel manifold was examined; the filter screen was clear of debris, and no fuel was present. All fuel injectors were found to be open and without contamination. The fuel strainer was intact and clear of contaminants. The throttle-body metering unit was impact-damaged and separated from its mount. The flexible fuel hose connected to the throttle body unit was severed and fire- and impact-damaged, but the metering unit remained intact. A compacted contaminant was found obstructing the entire fuel filter screen in the metering unit that was further examined by the NTSB Materials Laboratory in Washington, DC, and determined to be dirt that had come in contact with aviation fuel.
The propeller separated from the crankshaft propeller flange and was found in the debris path about 36 ft from the engine. Blade one exhibited a slight rearward bend and chordwise scratching on the outboard section. Blade two exhibited rearward bending, twisting, and chordwise scratching and paint transfer over its entire length.
Medical And Pathological Information
The Georgia Bureau of Investigation, Division of Forensic Sciences, Central Regional Lab, Berrien County, Georgia, performed an autopsy of the pilot. The cause of death was thermal and blunt force injuries, and the manner of death was accident.
The FAA's Bioaeronautical Sciences Research Laboratory, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, performed toxicology testing on samples from the pilot. The testing identified cetirizine, a potentially-impairing antihistamine, in blood and urine, salicylate (aspirin) in urine, and 16% carbon monoxide in blood.
Fuel Source and Fueling Operations
According to the pilot's ground assistant, the pilot had used his own trailer-based 450-gallon fuel tank for flight operations since the fall of 2015. The fuel tank was used for multiple flights on the day before and day of the accident. He further reported that the week before the accident, he and the pilot refueled the tank with 120 gallons of 100LL aviation fuel from the self-service fuel pump at TMA.
The ground assistant reported that two interconnected fuel hoses were attached to the fuel tank. The fuel tank was originally equipped with a 10-ft fuel hose, and the week before the accident, the pilot added a 20-ft extension. The ground assistant further reported that normally during preflight preparation, if fuel had not been pumped for a few days or more through the hose, they would run 1 or 2 gallons of fuel through the hose because of a brown discoloration in the fuel. He added that, after pumping a few gallons, the fuel would return to a "normal blue" 100LL color and then fuel would be added to the airplane.
Three days after the accident, an FAA inspector drained fuel from the pilot's trailer-based fuel tank and reported that the fuel sample was "clean and blue" and that he observed no debris. Additionally, 10 days after the accident, an NTSB investigator observed the pilot's ground assistant pump fuel samples through the 30-ft fuel hose into clear containers. The first 1 to 2 gallons of fuel pumped appeared dark green, but, as the pumping continued, the fuel appeared light blue, consistent with 100LL fuel.
The NTSB Materials Laboratory examined the two fuel hoses from the pilot's trailer-based fuel tank. The fuel hoses were determined to be made of rubber, and both hoses appeared to be completely intact and showed no signs of chemical degradation.
NTSB Identification: ERA16FA316
14 CFR Part 91: General Aviation
Accident occurred Friday, September 16, 2016 in Alapaha, GA
Aircraft: CESSNA A188, registration: N3547Q
Injuries: 1 Fatal.
This is preliminary information, subject to change, and may contain errors. Any errors in this report will be corrected when the final report has been completed. NTSB investigators either traveled in support of this investigation or conducted a significant amount of investigative work without any travel, and used data obtained from various sources to prepare this aircraft accident report.
On September 16, 2016, about 0915 eastern daylight time, a Cessna A188, N3547Q, was destroyed when it impacted terrain while maneuvering near Alapaha, Georgia. The commercial pilot was fatally injured. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed and no flight plan was filed for the aerial application flight. The flight originated at Berrien County Airport (4J2), Nashville, Georgia, and was conducted under the provisions of 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 137.
According to an assistant who routinely supported the pilot during ground operations, the pilot planned to complete three aerial application flights the day of the accident. The first flight departed 4J2 at 0715 and returned about 1 hour and 15 minutes later. The ground assistant reported that the pilot stated, "everything seems good," and they began preparations for the second flight. The ground assistant loaded about 150 to 160 gallons of insecticide into the airplane and the pilot "topped off" the single fuel tank from his personal trailer-based fuel supply. The pilot put on his shoulder harness and flight helmet, and the airplane then departed at 0855.
According to two witnesses, they each reported that they heard the airplane "flying back and forth" near their separate properties about 0915. They both further reported that the engine noise went silent and subsequently heard the sound of an impact. The witnesses were not co-located, but both reported they were within 1/4 to 1/2 mile of the accident site at the time of the accident. Neither witness observed the airplane in flight.
The airplane was found in an upright position in an open plowed field in the vicinity of 31 degrees, 26.042 minutes north latitude, 083 degrees, 10.443 minutes west longitude. The field in which the airplane was found was just north of the field being sprayed.
The wreckage path, oriented along a 300-degree magnetic heading, commenced with broken branches, an estimated 30 feet above the ground, from trees bordering the two fields. There was then a ground scar about 60 feet beyond the trees, and about 20 feet beyond that was the separated, two-bladed metal propeller. The airplane came to rest about 20 feet beyond the propeller, heading the opposite direction, about 120 degrees magnetic. There were no ground scars between the initial ground scar and the airplane's final location.
All major components of the airplane were accounted for at the scene, and flight control continuity was confirmed from the cockpit to all flight control surfaces or their remnants.
The fuselage exhibited impact and fire damage; however, there was no evidence of fire in flight. The left wing remained attached to the fuselage. The right wing was found twisted forward of its normal position, the fuselage was canted to the right just forward of the firewall. The empennage displayed metal tearing to the right, all of which were consistent with the airplane having been in a left spin at initial ground impact. The separated empennage control surfaces were found under the rear fuselage.
Both flaps were found in an extended position. The flap handle, which was connected directly to the flaps, was found in a near-vertical position, past the flaps 20-degrees down position; however, the actual position of both the flaps and the handle prior to the initial impact could not be ascertained. The left fixed main landing gear was collapsed upward under the wing, and the right fixed main landing was separated from the wing.
Further examination of the cockpit revealed that the throttle control lever was found about 1/3 forward (from idle). The propeller control lever was found in the forward position (full rpm). The mixture control was found pulled aft (toward idle-cut-off), about 1 inch. The fuel ON/OFF valve was found in the ON position.
A four-point lever lock style buckle was identified latched with the shoulder harness buckle ends engaged in the lever lock. The instrument panel was consumed by the postimpact fire. A fire-damaged agricultural global positioning system was found mounted in the cockpit and was retained to attempt data extraction.
One propeller blade exhibited an aft bend, while the other remained straight. The propeller blade with the aft bend exhibited chordwise scratching from the mid-point to the tip of the propeller, while the straight blade only displayed chordwise scratches at the propeller tip.
The engine exhibited thermal damage. Crankshaft continuity was confirmed from the propeller flange to the accessory section of the engine. Thumb compression and suction were attained on all cylinders when the propeller flange was rotated. All twelve spark plugs were examined with no anomalies observed. Each magneto was removed and rotated manually; spark was observed at each individual ignition lead. The engine driven fuel pump drive coupling was intact and no anomalies were found when examined. The oil filter screen was removed from the oil pump housing and no contaminants were found.
The fuel manifold was examined; the filter screen was clear of debris and no fuel was present. The six individual fuel injectors were found to also be absent of debris. The throttle body/metering unit was found to contain debris, and the screen filter was damaged but remained inside the filter chamber. The fuel throttle/metering unit was retained for further examination. JASON E. WATSON: http://registry.faa.gov/N3547Q

ALAPAHA, GA (WALB) - Officials in Berrien County and the Federal Aviation Administration are investigating a plane crash that left one man dead.
Nashville native, Jason Watson, was flying the plane when it crashed.
It was a sad scene, as people kept driving by to look at the wreckage and briefly speak with WALB about the pilot.
Some individuals said they heard the plane crash Friday morning and felt helpless when they got over to the scene.
It was just before 9:30 in the morning when people working and living on the other side of a fence heard a crop duster buzzing over head.
A normal sound that quickly made a turn for the worst.
"It went blank. There wasn't no noise of the plane and you couldn't hear the motor running," explained witness James Davis.
"Five to ten seconds later, that's when I heard a boom. Then I seen the smoke. Then I rushed over here," said witness Ray Heath.
Just moments after hearing the crash, people quickly headed over to help the pilot of the plane.
"I got there and I was expecting to see somebody standing outside the plane watching the plane burn, but it wasn't like that when I crossed the fence," said Davis. "Starting off I said, no I don't see him. I thought maybe he's out here somewhere, ya know. Sure enough, I rounded the plane and I was like, the pilot's in the plane, he's no longer, no longer alive."
Watson did not survive.
Davis said that it's a reminder of how dangerous working in the agriculture industry can be.
"Anything to do with agriculture is so dangerous," explained Davis.
The crash is still under investigation, but officials said they believe it could be mechanical.
As for the pilot, friends, family and co-workers said Watson will not be forgotten.
"I really hate it for him and his family. He was a really good guy. A really nice guy," said Davis.
"It's a horrible event. Our heart goes out to the family and our prayers are with them," said Sheriff Ray Paulk.
And eyewitnesses said that it's a chilling memory they will never forget.
"I don't think I'll ever un-see it," said Davis.
The crash is still under investigation and WALB will continue to bring you new details as we get them.

ALAPAHA — The pilot of a crop-dusting plane was killed Friday in a crash in a rural Berrien County field, according to a witness.
The plane's pilot, Jason Watson, 31, of Nashville, was killed in the crash, said Berrien County Sheriff Ray Paulk.
The sheriff said the crash occurred after 9 a.m. Friday.
James Davis of Alapaha was working on peanut equipment in a field off Daniel Griffin Road around 9:15 a.m. when he heard the plane's engine quit.
"I felt a 'thump' and heard the crash," he said.
He and a friend who lives nearby, Ray Heath, jumped a fence and ran to the crash site, where they found one occupant in the plane.
"He was already dead," Davis said.
Berrien County Sheriff's Office and the Federal Aviation Administration were on the scene.
ALAPAHA, GA (WALB) - The identity of the man killed in a plane crash this morning has been released.
Jason Watson, 31, was the pilot of the crop duster airplane.
The crash happened around 9:30 a.m. near 1130 Daniel Griffin Road.
The FAA will be investigating the crash.
Some witnesses said they heard the plane make a sputtering sound and go silent.
Officials said this is leading them to believe it could have been a mechanical issue. However, they can't confirm that just yet.
"Starting off I said, no I don't see him. I thought maybe he's out here somewhere, ya know. Sure enough, I rounded the plane and I was like, the pilot's in the plane, he's no longer, no longer alive," said witness James Davis.
The cause of this crash is still under investigation right now.
