After I rebuilt my 0300A I ran it between 2500 & 2700 rpm for the first 10 hrs.and then headed for Kelowna. On the trip I averaged 6.87 gph @ 2400 rpm @ between 6000 to 8500 asl and used just over 1 qt of oil in 38 hours round trip. Greg

I was going through some photos and ran across this one of me and my buddy with our A's Greg

Here are some pics of 11D. The early pics are scanned from photos, before I owned a digital camera. I bought 11D in 1996, in pieces. Didn't work on it for a few years after. I flew it for the first time 6-1-06, have a little over 4 hrs on it now. Good to be back it the air. Its not the destination i...

Corey, Almost every time I go to ANC I do the Merrill Fd driveby, haven't seen any 170's with the cowl removed. I hear that AK 170's are so dependable that you never have to work on them...... Greg

Eric, I am using a 1960 172 cowl, and Bartone exhaust stacks. Greg

You don't have to look very far to find photos of the outside of a 170 but nobody seams to have photos of what keeps the old birds in the air. Greg

I need a little help in the form of some detailed pictures of an engine compartment that shows routing and hold downs of wiring, lines, hoses, cables and baffling ect. T...

Does any body know the length of the lower flap cable for a 170A. I have two different cables one measures 119 5/8" and the other is 125 5/8". The new one i just got from McFarlane is 125 5/8" part#mc0510105-105 is stainless steel. The parts book calls for 0510105-114 for stainless st...

I have an A model that stuck out in front. I replaced the hinges with late model cast aluminum ones from a 180 and shimmed underneath the half on the door. Looks better and works better too. I was about to buy a Door Steward, but sounds like i might reconsider. Anybody have any experence with them e...
