Presenting the Air Tractor AT-802

The Air Tractor AT-802 is an agricultural aircraft that may also be adapted into fire-fighting or ARMED Air Force version.
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.

In response to the United States Air Force's LAAR program and the growing requirement for light counter-insurgency aircraft,
Air Tractor developed an armed model, the AT-802U, in 2008, with engine and cockpit armor, a bulletproof windscreen,
self-sealing fuel tanks, and structural reinforcements for the carriage of 9,000 pounds (4,100 kg) of payload.
A reinforced wing spar was certified for 12,000 hours of flight time, and the AT-802U was displayed in 2008 at the Paris Air Show.

If there are any agricultural aviation pilots here I bet they'd love to see this as a crop duster.   Turn "smoke on" and make it look like pesticides being sprayed would be cool.  Thumbs up for creativity!

Is it just me, or is that the smallest prop in game, other than a heli's tail rotor? Even then it's still tiny. Once my new computer starts working... well, there won't be much left on the ground. Makes me wonder about a CRP version would look even more ridiculously un proportioned.
Don't get me wrong though, the week and a half I had it was pretty entertaining!

Yep!  It's Dusty Crophopper!  If you want to see a fun flying movie then go see "PLANES"!  It's about a cropduster wanting to be a racer.  There's even an old veteran Warbird as his mentor.

ah, still waiting on skins  :-|
I just learned that this aircraft is made in the small town of Olney, Texas!

Here's some interesting videos I found...
Agricultural, Fire-fighting, Military, and there is also a floatplane version!

Yes. indeed, it is a cool little aircraft and its even armed to the teeth like a shark!  8) Flies good to me.

There is no template for it and I have only re-painted some skin files from its main files to
add more details. Perhaps one of these days I will create a new template, but first I have to finish other
aircraft I am already working on at this moment.
In ALL the flight Sims that are out there, and I mean really ALL games, there is not enough
people making new templates for aircraft  :(
