What should a pilot do when a customer requests treatment to a field with wires across it diagonally?

When faced with the presence of wires across a field, safety is the primary concern for the pilot conducting aerial applications. Scheduling the job for the following morning is prudent because it allows the pilot to assess the conditions in better light and reduces the risks involved in maneuvering around obstacles such as wires. Poor visibility or hurried decisions can lead to dangerous situations, including potential collisions with the wires.

Waiting until the morning may also provide an opportunity to evaluate alternative methods of accessing the field that minimize risk, ensuring the pilot can operate safely and effectively.

The other choices might not prioritize safety adequately. For instance, proceeding with the job immediately could lead to hazardous situations, while requesting additional crew support does not necessarily address the issue of safely navigating around existing obstacles. Advising the customer to remove the wires may not be feasible or could create delays, which is why rescheduling allows for a more comprehensive approach to the situation.
