After about two weeks it suddenly came to me that I could write it in the crops and we could go up in the plane.“I used a weed killer that was sprayed onto a quad bike and I just spelled it out. But I had to leave it at least a week before we flew up, so I did it the week before the flight on May 4,” he said.The proposal worked as his girlfriend is now his fiancé and they plan on getting married this summer.[caption id="attachment_81593" align="aligncenter" width="614"]
