Re: 170B float drawings

Re: 8.50x 6 tires
What I glean from this letter is if one references this letter and includes a copy when sending it to OK city (337 copy) you should be good to go. Or maybe log book entry referencing the letter. Keep in mind you must have previously installed STC'd Clevelands and associated 337 filed/log book entry....

170 IPC has all of the parts outlined as well as the Cessna drawing part number.

Re: Tailwheel Lifespan
Sounds to me that the origin of the tire and tube could be an issue. Last time I was shopping for one they offered me a "Made in China" set. I declined.

Re: AD 83-22-06 (NOT 170, but related?)

Re: Eliminating fuel pumps
I thought of this thread as I was waiting to take off yesterday. It was a bit warm and I was taking off after a half-hour fuel stop. The fuel pressure normally indicates a solid 6 psi, but idling in the runup area I saw it occasionally dropping into the 3 psi range, then back up to 5. A few vapor b...

Re: 180 Gear vs Lady Legs
As I understand it "Lady Legs" were developed as a "softer" gear to improve landing outcomes. The 180/185 legs are thicker (Stiffer) they accommodate heavier engines in the 170's however being thicker (IF) "P" Ponk kit is installed before hand they (The new legs) won't ...
