Air Tractor AT-802
The Air Tractor AT-802 is an agricultural aircraft that may also be adapted into fire-fighting or armed versions. It first flew in the United States in October 1990 and is manufactured by Air Tractor Inc. The AT-802 carries a chemical hopper between the engine firewall and the cockpit and another one under the belly. In the U.S., it is considered a Type III SEAT, or Single Engine Air Tanker.
==Development==
In its standard configuration, the aircraft utilizes conventional landing gear (two main wheels and a tail wheel). However, a number of aircraft have been converted to the Fire Boss aerial firefighting configuration, which utilizes Wipaire 10000 amphibious floats, so that it can land on a traditional runway or on water. The Fire Boss can scoop water from a lake or river for use on a fire. In addition to the 〔(AT-802 Fire Boss Factsheet ) at http://www.airtractoreurope.com〕 standard fuselage-mounted retardant tank, the Fire Boss can have optional foam tanks in the floats.〔(Wipaire Fire Boss Service Manual )〕 Operations with floats installed have been shown to produce a shorter and narrower retardant drop pattern than wheeled AT-802s.〔("Evaluation of Long Term Retardant Drop Patterns from Air Tractor 802 Amphibious Float and Wheel Equipped Aircraft", Forest Engineering Research Institute of Canada, February 2006 )〕
