Does anyone know when the use of PT-13/17 Stearman's was phased out by the US 
armed services? Any ideas which training base used them last? 
 
 
From an old Peter Bowers column recently rerun in a Pacific coast based 
aviation newspaper he states that the last US Army/Air Force Stearmans were 
withdrawn in 1948.  He doesn't state what units or uses they were being used 
for. 
 
The last USN N3N's were not withdrawn till 1961!
