The World's Ag Plane Founded in 1978, Texas-based Air
Tractor is a leading manufacturer of aircraft built for agricultural,
firefighting and other utility applications. Air Tractor aircraft can be found
hard at work over fields and forests in more than 30 countries around the
world. The AT-500 series of ag airplanes first flew in the U.S. on April 25th,
1986. Since then, it has grown into one of the world's most popular families
of general aviation, single-turboprop driven aircraft used for crop dusting,
firefighting and other applications. Factory-finished in the familiar, high-
visibility yellow and blue trim scheme with molded-in panel lines, rivets and
more, the E-flite Air Tractor 1.5m model offers a superb scale appearance

functional features including LED navigation and landing lights, slotted flaps
and oversized tires, plus it's capable yet easy to fly making it an ideal

incredible capabilities and unmatched versatility. Those qualities carry over

wing model for intermediate to experienced RC pilots. The specially-tuned

speed handling while also offering Short Take Off and Landing (STOL)
capabilities. Robust landing gear and wheels with oversized tires allow the
Air Tractor to fly from paved, grass, dirt, gravel or other surfaces at any
suitably-sized park or RC flying field. Add large ponds or small lakes to your
possible flying sites by installing optional floats (EFL5261, sold separately)
