 And Alan shows a picture of that same plane as it towed a batter over Rehoboth Beach on June 11th of this summer. It's a 1974 Belanca 8 GCBC registered to Ocean Aerial Ads. When reached by phone on Sunday, Bob Bunting, owner of Ocean Aerial Ads, says the pilot is doing just fine and that mishaps like this go with the business. His company's been towing batters for 42 years and has been crop dusting for 44 years. He has four batter planes currently in service.
