Notes

Confused about the 802 model designations?

The two “official” models are AT-802 (two seat cockpit) and AT-802A (single seat cockpit).  Either of these aircraft can be used for agricultural work or for firefighting.  

If a firefighting model 802 is equipped with the Air Tractor computerized firegate, we call it an AT-802F or AT-802AF.  A model AT-802 equipped with amphibious floats is known as a Fire Boss.
