Air Tractor AT-602
The Air Tractor AT-602 is an agricultural aircraft manufactured by Air Tractor Inc, that first flew in the United States on 1 December 1995. Of monoplane low-wing, taildragger configuration, it carries a chemical hopper between the engine firewall and the cockpit. It was designed to fill a gap in the Air Tractor range, between the AT-500 series with a 500 US gal (1,890 L) capacity and the AT-802 with a 810 US gal (3,070 L) capacity
Wide swath. Fast ferry times. Big payloads. It’s easy to see why the AT-602 is a hard-working favorite of ag operators. Its 630-gallon (2.385 L) hopper and 12,500 lb. (5.670 kg) gross weight make the AT-602 a logical next step with you need to turn your operation’s productivity up another profitable notch. It’s big, but in the pilot’s seat, you’ll find the AT-602 is surprisingly light on the controls, with a spacious and functional layout and a host of pilot comforts..
