Do you think it is posssible to air-layer the top off an old spruce tree?
I was thinking of using the "bark flap & bridge" style this spring.
Do you have any (non generalised) suggestions?

You can air-layer it if you want, just with that technique. But remind that it can take a while till it has enough roots!
I only have done air-layering one time, so I've no further suggestions than all the basic-things,
I wish you good luck
(Would you take some pictures of your air-layer? Thanks!)

Its certainly possible (just look at nature; it happens!) but as with all conifers; it takes time!
Good luck John!
