The AT-802 carries its working load in a hopper ahead of the cockpit. Its low wing, large turboprop and elevated pilot position reflect its agricultural origins. The same basic platform has been adapted for firefighting and other specialist work.
An agricultural aircraft and an amphibious Fire Boss are distinct configurations. Floats, water collection and delivery equipment change the role as well as the appearance. The simulator products identify their agricultural or firefighting mission equipment.

A first water scoop proves harder than it looks
McSpadden joined Dauntless Air's annual training at Cleburne, Texas, flying with chief pilot Jesse Weaver in a Fire Boss. He found the aircraft's ordinary handling approachable, despite its size and large floats, and admired how Weaver used bank, flap and careful energy management to position it smoothly. A simulated attack on an island in Lake Whitney demonstrated the coordination between aircraft making successive drops.
His own attempt to collect water brought a different experience. Concerned about engine limits, he added too little power while the hopper filled. The aircraft began to oscillate, and his control inputs did not settle it. Weaver directed him to dump the water and accelerate away. McSpadden describes the relief as the load disappeared and the aircraft lifted off. The exercise made the distinction between basic floatplane handling and a well-executed scoop tangible; Weaver explained that even experienced seaplane pilots needed dedicated practice.
Bringing close-air-support habits to the fire line
Young connects his earlier A-10 service with his work flying Air Spray's AT-802F Fire Bosses from Chico, California. In Air Tractor's interview, he describes the familiar demands of airspace coordination, communication and supporting people on the ground. Flying in organised groups, under an air tactical supervisor or lead aircraft, gives that support a structure he recognised from military operations.
The aircraft still demanded humility. Young warned that a pilot arriving with complete confidence in an ability to fly anything would quickly meet a challenge in the Fire Boss. His emphasis was on preparation, disciplined execution and honest debriefing. Annual spring training brought crews back to scooping, dropping and coordinated tactics before the season. The work also had a local significance: the Camp Fire had affected colleagues, neighbours and families around Chico. This is a manufacturer's published interview, with Young's operational experience clearly attributed to him.
A cargo stop leads to a new kind of flying
Young first encountered a Fire Boss during a cargo stop at Galena, Alaska, in 2021. A tour with its pilot persuaded her to pursue the aircraft herself. Coming from work as a mechanic, flight engineer and cargo pilot, she took leave to train, paid for simulator time and built aerial-application experience on jobs including tree fertilising. She joined Dauntless Air in 2022 and flew her first fire in Alaska that year.
In Sylvia Schneider Horne's interview, Young describes enjoying both the independence of a single-pilot cockpit and the formation work and group tactics of firefighting. Scooping was a distinct challenge that required its own practice, even for someone already comfortable with floatplanes. Alaska remained central to her enjoyment of the work and where she wanted to spend the summer.
The satisfaction of a useful drop, and the limits of the weather
Smajo moved from military flying instruction into Croatia's firefighting squadron when it needed additional pilots in 2008. In his interview about the AT-802 Fire Boss, he describes an aircraft whose manoeuvrability allowed useful work around difficult terrain and the edges of a fire. The most satisfying moment was a well-placed water drop and the knowledge that it had helped people below. He also wanted recognition for the maintainers and other crews whose work was often overlooked.
The 2011 Brač fire remained a difficult memory: lingering smoke reduced visibility, and sustained effort left the crews exhausted. At other times, strong wind and turbulence kept them grounded while a fire continued to spread. He describes the frustration of being needed but unable to fly, as happened around Split before conditions improved the next day. His family helped him recover from the emotional demands.

Air Tractor AT-802
Free + ProMSFS 2024
The AT-802 carries its working load in a hopper ahead of the cockpit. Its low wing, large turboprop and elevated pilot position reflect its agricultural origins. The same basic platform has been adapted for firefighting and other specialist work.
This starting point selects Air Tractor AT-802. Its aircraft-level settings do not select a particular developer’s custom systems.
Spring resistance builds with the selected airspeed response. A separate aerodynamic term adds speed-dependent control load.
Valid trim provides the configured pressure relief. Autopilot following is off.
Controls and trim
Air Tractor describes the wheeled AT-802A with its PT6A-65AG installation and agricultural working configuration. Main wheels, a tailwheel and flap-dependent performance belong to that layout. Amphibious Fire Boss equipment is a separate selection. Working speed and published cruise conditions describe aircraft operation rather than a calibration of the selected stick-loading response.
About the values
The gains are normalized profile settings. They describe the chosen effect balance; hand force depends on the device and its output limits. IAS references are tuning values rather than operating limits. Physical acceptance of this revision remains pending.
Master gain & control system
Master gain85%
Die letzte Gesamtskalierung über alles, was das Modell erzeugt, vor der Gerätegrenze.
Mehr: alles (Feder, Lasten, Effekte) wird gemeinsam stärker.
Weniger: alles wird gemeinsam weicher.
Warum hier: Scales overall profile strength while preserving effect balance, subject to device and output limits.
Forces
Spring strength74%
Die Grundzentrierkraft, die den Stick zur Mitte zieht. Jede andere Kraft baut darauf auf. Zu niedrig fühlt sich der Stick im Normalflug schlaff an; zu hoch kämpft er gegen deine Hand und überdeckt die feineren Signale.
Mehr: festere Zentrierung, die der Hand jederzeit mehr widersteht.
Weniger: ein schlafferer Stick, der sich allein auf die aerodynamische Last stützt.
Warum hier: The wheeled agricultural configuration supplies equipment context; the profile's speed-dependent resistance remains nominal control loading. The baseline spring is 0.74. Its low-speed blend reaches baseline strength at 72.5 KIAS.
Air Tractor AT-802ASpring deadband5%
Eine kleine neutrale Zone um die Mitte, in der die Feder ruhig bleibt, damit kleinste Bewegungen im Stand nicht flattern. Breiter ist ruhiger, aber lockerer; enger ist präziser, kann aber um die Mitte zittern.
Mehr: eine ruhigere, aber lockerere Mitte mit mehr Spiel.
Weniger: eine straffere Mitte, die in Ruhe zittern kann.
Warum hier: Sets travel around the centre before the baseline spring resists. Smaller values engage it sooner.
Overall aerodynamic load68%
Ein Gesamtmaß über beide anhaltenden Achslasten, vor ihrer Einzelbalance angewendet. Profile lassen es normalerweise stehen und stimmen die beiden Achslasten ab.
Mehr: beide Achsen laden härter auf.
Weniger: beide Achsen werden gemeinsam leichter.
Warum hier: The aerodynamic-load gain is 0.68 with an indicated-speed reference of 145 KIAS. This supplies speed-dependent loading alongside the spring.
Airspeed blendingTrue
Aktiviert das Niedrigfahrt-Einblendfenster der Feder (Beginn/Voll in Knoten oben). Aus bleibt die Feder bei jeder Fahrt konstant.
Warum hier: Allows baseline spring strength to rise with indicated airspeed where the control law permits it.
Low-speed spring floor55%
Wie viel Feder im Stillstand übrig bleibt, bevor Fahrt überhaupt aerodynamische Kraft aufbauen kann. Ein hoher Sockel hält den geparkten Stick straff; ein niedriger ergibt das lose Seilzuggefühl eines geparkten Leichtflugzeugs.
Mehr: ein festerer Stick beim Parken und Rollen.
Weniger: ein schlaffer geparkter Stick, der erst mit Fahrt aufwacht.
Warum hier: Sets low-speed spring strength as a fraction of baseline when blending is enabled. One keeps full strength.
Spring engagement start20 kt
Die Fahrt, ab der die Feder vom Niedrigfahrt-Sockel Richtung volle Stärke steigt: der Beginn des "Lebendigwerdens" der Ruder im Startlauf.
Warum hier: Sets the IAS where the low-speed spring blend starts rising. This is a feel threshold, not a flight limit.
Spring engagement full72.5 kt
Die Fahrt, bei der die Feder volle Stärke erreicht. Zwischen Beginn und diesem Punkt strafft sich die Zentrierung zunehmend mit der Anströmung.
Warum hier: Sets the IAS where the low-speed blend reaches baseline strength; high-speed stiffening also uses it.
Geschwindigkeit zur Kraftabstimmung145
Die angezeigte Fahrt, bei der die aerodynamische Last ihr ausgelegtes Vollniveau erreicht. Sie verankert die gesamte Lastkurve am realen Geschwindigkeitsbereich: eine 172 lädt bis 110 Knoten auf, ein Jet viel später.
Mehr: Lasten kommen später; der Stick bleibt bis zu höherer Fahrt leicht.
Weniger: Lasten kommen früher, und die Reise fühlt sich schwerer an.
Warum hier: Sets the IAS reference for aerodynamic loading. It is an estimate, not published cruise TAS or a flight limit.
Centre firmness vs speed10%
Wie stark sich die Zentrierung selbst mit der Fahrt strafft, zusätzlich zu den Ausschlaglasten. Null hält das Mittengefühl konstant; mehr lässt den Stick im Reiseflug härter und im Anflug lockerer zentrieren.
Mehr: eine Mitte, die mit Fahrt spürbar härter wird.
Weniger: konstantes Mittengefühl bei jeder Fahrt.
Warum hier: The high-speed spring-stiffening gain is 0.1. It strengthens the permitted spring response above 72.5 KIAS, with the squared-speed ratio capped at 5.
Centre stiffening cap5
Die Obergrenze der fahrtabhängigen Mittenstraffung, damit sehr hohe Fahrt die Feder nicht grenzenlos aufzieht.
Mehr: mehr Gesamtstraffung bei hoher Fahrt erlaubt.
Weniger: die Straffung klemmt früher ab.
Warum hier: Limits the squared airspeed ratio used for high-speed spring stiffening; it is not a device-force cap.
Aileron load72%
Die anhaltende Rolllast aus Querruderausschlag und Fahrt, unabhängig vom Nick balanciert. Zusammen mit der Höhenruderlast bestimmt sie die Ruderharmonie, von der Testberichte sprechen.
Mehr: schwerere Rollkräfte.
Weniger: leichtere, quirligere Querruder.
Warum hier: Roll and pitch aerodynamic scales are 0.72 and 1, respectively. They set the aerodynamic axis balance. No custom spring-travel curve is enabled.
Elevator load100%
Die anhaltende Nicklast aus Höhenruderausschlag und Fahrt, unabhängig von der Rollachse balanciert. Der Haupthebel für das Nickgewicht eines Musters. Er verändert weder Querruder, Feder, Trimmung noch Schüttelkräfte.
Mehr: schwerere anhaltende Nickkräfte bei Fahrt.
Weniger: ein leichteres Höhenruder, das weniger Muskel braucht.
Warum hier: Scales pitch aerodynamic loading; pitch spring travel and trim responses are separate settings.
Max output force55%
Eine Kappe je stetiger Nick- oder Rollkraft vor dem Gerät. Der Schutz davor, die Hardware in harten Manövern zu überfahren oder zu sättigen.
Mehr: stärkere Spitzenkräfte vor dem Abschneiden.
Weniger: eine sanftere Decke; harte Manöver flachen früher ab.
Warum hier: Caps directed-force output. Native spring effects and device limits remain separate.
Trim
Trim relief (elevator)30%
Wie stark Höhenrudertrimmung die gehaltene Nickkraft abbaut und den Ruhepunkt des Sticks verschiebt. Bei 100 % braucht ein sauber getrimmtes Flugzeug keinen gehaltenen Druck: das Wegtrimmen der Last wie im echten Fliegen.
Mehr: Trimmung nimmt mehr der gehaltenen Nickkraft; bei 100 % nullt volle Trimmung sie.
Weniger: du hältst auch getrimmt weiter Kraft.
Warum hier: Pitch-trim relief is a selected software response. The manufacturer overview does not provide an exact trim-to-stick force relationship. Pitch authority 0.3 provides load relief and permitted centre movement; roll authority is 0.14.
Air Tractor AT-802ATrim relief (aileron)14%
Dieselbe Entlastung für Rolltrimmung. Die meisten GA-Muster haben keine echte Querrudertrimmung, daher bleibt sie bei null; Muster mit Rolltrimmung bekommen einen passenden Wert.
Mehr: Rolltrimmung nimmt mehr gehaltene Rollkraft.
Weniger: Rolltrimmung bewirkt weniger.
Warum hier: Scales supported roll-trim relief and permitted centre movement. Zero removes roll response.
Effect gains · Ground
Runway rumble42%
Rollende Untergrundvibration aus Radgeschwindigkeit und Oberflächenart: die Textur von Asphalt, Gras oder Schotter unter dem Fahrwerk.
Mehr: lautere Oberflächentextur durch den Stick.
Weniger: ruhigeres Rollen.
Warum hier: Sets rolling texture strength, modified by speed, surface and undercarriage configuration.
Gear bumps32%
Kurze einzelne Stöße von Dehnfugen, Spurrillen und rauem Belag: die Interpunktion über dem kontinuierlichen Rumpeln.
Mehr: schärfere Stöße von Fugen und Rillen.
Weniger: weichere Bodendetails.
Warum hier: Sets gear-bump texture during ground motion, separate from touchdown impact.
Effect gains · Airframe
Stall buffet28%
Zellenschütteln vor dem Überziehen und bei aktiver Überziehwarnung: wie laut diese Fläche ihr Unbehagen ankündigt. Muster mit sauberem Abriss bekommen moderates Schütteln, das Horn trägt die Warnung.
Mehr: lauteres Schütteln vor dem Überziehen.
Weniger: eine leisere Fläche; das Horn trägt die Warnung.
Warum hier: Sets stall-buffet strength. Zero removes the cue without changing simulator stalls or warnings.
Mach buffet0%
Transsonisches Schütteln nahe der Machgrenze. Relevant für Jets nahe MMO, null für Kolben und Turboprops, die nie dort ankommen.
Mehr: stärkeres transsonisches Schütteln nahe der Machgrenze.
Weniger: ruhigerer Flug bei hohem Mach.
Warum hier: Sets high-Mach buffet strength; onset and full-strength thresholds are separate.
Flap buffet14%
Niederfrequente Zellenvibration mit Klappen im Fahrtwind, im Fenster, in dem sie wirklich Luft arbeiten.
Mehr: ein rauerer Lauf mit arbeitenden Klappen.
Weniger: ruhigere Anflugklappen.
Warum hier: Sets flap buffet at the configured position and speed gates. Flap movement texture is separate.
Gear buffet0%
Zellentrommeln vom ausgefahrenen Einziehfahrwerk im Fahrtwind. Null für Festfahrwerke, deren Zelle nie die Form ändert.
Mehr: mehr Trommeln mit hängendem Fahrwerk.
Weniger: saubererer Flug mit Fahrwerk.
Warum hier: Sets gear aerodynamic buffet; movement and ground-contact cues are separate.
Stick shaker50%
Der dedizierte Stall-Stickshaker-Buzz, ausgelöst von der Überziehwarnanlage des Flugzeugs. Nur Muster mit echtem Shaker bekommen einen Wert; alle anderen verlassen sich auf Schütteln und Horn.
Mehr: ein härterer Shaker-Buzz.
Weniger: ein dezenterer Shaker.
Warum hier: Sets triggered shaker strength; inactive while the shaker feature is disabled.
Effect gains · Engine, mechanical & drag
Touchdown thump82%
Der Einmalstoß beim Aufsetzen, skaliert mit der Sinkrate: ein Butterlander flüstert, ein fester Aufsetzer wummst.
Mehr: ein härterer Tritt beim Aufsetzen.
Weniger: weichere Ankünfte.
Warum hier: Sets landing-impact strength; landing telemetry and response shape determine the pulse.
Reverse rumble48%
Ausrollvibration bei Schubumkehr oder Beta-Verstellung. Null für Muster ohne Umkehr.
Mehr: ein rauerer Ausrollvorgang unter Umkehrschub.
Weniger: leisere Umkehr.
Warum hier: Sets reverse-thrust vibration with valid reverser and engine conditions. Zero removes the cue.
Engine rumble6%
Kontinuierliche Triebwerksvibration, die der Drehzahl von Leerlauf bis Volllast folgt: die allgegenwärtige Erinnerung, dass vorn etwas Kraftstoff verbrennt.
Mehr: mehr Triebwerk im Stick.
Weniger: ein leiseres Triebwerk.
Warum hier: Sets estimated engine vibration using configured telemetry and response, not measured cockpit vibration.
Flap motion12%
Dauervibration nur, solange der Simulator tatsächlich fahrende Klappenflächen meldet. Folgt echter Aktuatorbewegung und Ausfällen, keinem geschätzten Timer.
Mehr: mehr Vibration bei fahrenden Klappen.
Weniger: leisere Klappenläufe.
Warum hier: Sets texture from observed flap movement; a command without movement does not establish the cue.
Autopilot follow
AP follow authority10%
Wie weit Autopilotbefehle den physischen Stick bewegen dürfen. In MSFS winzig gehalten, weil eine bewegte Achse als Pilotene ingabe zurückgelesen werden kann; null schaltet das Folgen ab.
Mehr: der Autopilot bewegt deinen Stick sichtbar weiter.
Weniger: ein kaum wahrnehmbares Folgen.
Warum hier: Sets admitted AP-follow gain, not a percentage of travel. Runtime ownership and input limits still apply.
