Default question about 300ft long wiring run

Not practical in my case... i'm feeding 4 aerator heads from this one compressor. That would be a lot of hose spidering off in many directions.

Besides, my calcs show the voltage drop to be very small; the running current is 6amps meaning startup current is maybe 18amps (well within a 10awg breaker's capacity), and (unless I'm missing something) no respondant has raised a serious technical concern.
