The Western Company Duster is a fixed-wing airplane in Grand Theft Auto V.
Description
The Duster, as its namesake suggests, is a plane intended to spray pesticides over a large area in a small amount of time. The Duster is able to spray pesticides out of its belly by holding either X on the PS3 or A on the Xbox 360. Like the GTA San Andreas rendition, the pesticide sprayed out of the airplane serves no real purpose.
Performance
The Duster is the slowest fixed-wing aircraft in the game, but it makes up for this by possessing good handling abilities. It needs a long runway to take off, takes about 7 seconds.
Design
Unlike the previous rendition, the Duster resembles a Stearman PT-17 modified for crop dusting, with the vertical stabilizer and cowl of a Stearman 4.

Trivia
- When Michael, Trevor or Franklin fly the Duster, they will wear antique flying goggles and a leather hat.
- In the first trailer, the Duster can be seen spraying pesticide, similar to the Cropduster in GTA: San Andreas. This can be done by holding A on the Xbox 360 or X on the PS3.
- If the player purchases the Duster, it'll have a red and white paint job.
- Sometimes, when playing Minor Turbulence, Trevor may answer the Merryweather that his Duster was manufactured in 1989, yet the Elitas Travel page describes it as a plane produced in the 1930s and 40s.
- There is a wreckage of a Duster in the ocean a few miles south of Paleto Bay. It is unknown what caused the crash but there is a submarine part near it for the Death at Sea side mission.
- Its the only plane that lands on the McKenzie Field Runway.
