800 gallon drop from AT802

Dropping 800 gallons of water after a hopper leak test. This 802 is fitted with a purpose built fire door for firebombing applications. If you look closely you'll see the plane jump a little as it drops the water :)

Have you ever watched the hopper lid when a firebomber drops a full load. We installed the gate system on a few and you can see the whole hopper suck in at the top.

that wasn't even close to full, i have a video on my phone of one of our 802's dumping his load on the ground. I'd say half full. oh yeah, i also have a vid of 502 dumpin a load. that is much closer. i'd say half full this 802 is

Was it through a custom fire gate? It was full.

if u idiots that don't think that it is full look closely at the hopper ( the brown bit above where the water comes out ) as u can see the water drop down from the top don't have much to say now do u. As there are various dump doors mechanical ones to hydraulic computer controlled gen II systems with bigger doors and a vent system in the hopper lid which open's simultaneously with the dump doors reducing the time it takes to dump 800gal which is good if u need alot of water in 1 spot on a fire
