Re: Cessna 170 Loan Issues

He has deemed all work satisfactory, and the condition of the aircraft is within (this becomes conv...

Re: Pneumatic based door retention sytem
I like what I'm reading.... if nothing is held in place, with any type of structural clamp.....Where is a 337 or STC needed?

Darrel and I were chasing Dad in Darrel's 1956 172. Darrel had just received his pilots license, and was eager to make a real cross...
