Air Tractor AT-802A

The Air Tractor AT-802A stands alone as the world’s largest single-engine agricultural aircraft. Designed specifically for high-volume, high-production operations, its legendary capacity makes it the ultimate business asset for serious operators. When time is critical and the spraying window is tight, the AT-802A allows you to stay over the field longer, cover more acres per flight, and finish massive jobs in a fraction of the time.

By condensing the raw productivity of multiple smaller aircraft into a highly efficient, single-pilot operation, the AT-802A streamlines your business logistics. You reduce the need for extra ground crews, support vehicles, and multiple pilots, driving down overhead costs while significantly scaling your revenue potential. Whether handling large-scale crop protection, liquid fertilizers, or massive seeding operations, this plane delivers the kind of field performance that translates directly to a stronger bottom line.

Engineered for Efficiency & Pilot Safety

Every detail of the AT-802A is engineered to handle brutal operating environments and heavy-duty cycles. Powered by the reliable Pratt & Whitney PT6A-65AG turboprop engine, it offers smooth, responsive power even when loaded to maximum capacity. The airframe is famously rugged, built with Air Tractor’s signature steel fuselage structure to ensure unparalleled pilot safety.

Inside the cockpit, visibility is maximized, and pilot fatigue is minimized through optimized ergonomics and intuitive control placement. For modern operations utilizing advanced GPS guidance systems, flow controls, and precision digital application technology, the cockpit serves as a seamless, productive workstation. If your goal is to grow your business, work faster, and optimize every hour in the air, the AT-802A is the industry’s clear choice.
