So under powered that I can't imagine them carrying much of a load. Minimum fuel would be the first consideration.

The owner / CFI who taught me to fly in 1970, - (Wally Knight, Nepean Flying School, Camden), actually did crop dusting in Tigers in his younger days.
Wally told me about him spinning one in during ag ops. Lived to fly another day, he only left the earth a couple of years ago - well into his 90s.
