Is There A CESSNA 170 in a muesum?

Is there a Cessna 170 hanging in a museum?

I have seen the 180 piloted by a lady from Ohio. Hanging Smithsonian.

My question is about the C170.

Why not"?

Jughead

I admire you. You are such a Brave Pilot. A Man.

If I am 1500 ft ABG I am on final to approved runway.

Glad you love the C170.

Re: Mysterious food.

Simply amazing.

I am thinking about "emergency" food for downed GA pilots and GA Horn post Mexican history Black Bean episode.
G A knows some stuff.

May switch to Pinto beans.

Re: Request: Door frame picture(s)

A lot of stress gets introduced into the Door frame of C 170 air frame over 70 years

It is actually resilient and forgiving.

Technology used in WW2 aircraft leaked over to Cessna.

You own a Cessna 170? Good Stuff. Enjoy

Re: Maintenance Induced Emotional Roller Coaster

Emotional Roller coaster.

Its true

Put some dollar signs to a complete recheck of your C170.

Start at tip of prop spinner and work to the tail position light.
Add in the monetary value of your time.

I say $30,000 average.

Yes the Refried BLACK Beans became a hotsy totsie item through Martha Stewart just after she got out of prison.

Competing against the Pinto Beans.

Re: Replacing or Repairing Broken Windshield Center Strap C1

I now understand the welding disadvantage.

Now how about "JB Weld" with a cushioning poly spacer below it.

Our shop just repaired a foot operated valve that Crimps a steel toe onto a clipboard for the Tesla Cyber truck.

JB Weld can be a happy secret.

Price mentioned seems reasonable. I am impressed that they replaced cyl #5. Treasure trove of legal advise without you hiring a...
