In the immediate postwar years they became popular as crop dusters, sports planes, and for aerobatic and wing walking use in air shows. After World War II, thousands of surplus PT-17s were auctioned off to civilians and former military pilots. Many were modified for crop dusting use, with a hopper for pesticide or fertilizer fitted in place of the front cockpit. Additional equipment included pumps, spray bars, and nozzles mounted below the lower wings. A popular approved modification to increase the maximum takeoff weight and climb performance involved fitting a larger Pratt & Whitney R-985 Wasp Junior engine and a constant-speed propeller.
