A fluid distribution system that uses a hovering distribution device and methods for using such a system are provided. In one example, the system may include a reel that provides a hose for the hovering distribution device. The hovering distribution device receives pressurized fluid from the hose, and includes at least one nozzle configured to distribute the pressurized fluid and provide lift for the hovering distribution device using the pressurized fluid. A control system may be configured to execute a fluid distribution plan by controlling at least one of a position and an orientation of the hovering distribution device in a three dimensional space using a direction of the nozzle.
