Seattle area 170s

Post by bjan11 »

Hello,

Any 170 owners in the Seattle / western Washington area who'd be interested in giving someone a demo flight?

Once you get in the air it’s just a 172 basically. You shopping for one or…? I’ve got a 180hp one near Seattle but it won’t be representative of a stock one at all.

Not looking to buy at the moment, just curious. My girlfriend and I own a plane but we're interested in a taildragger, partly just because they're fun and cool, partly for some camping (Johnson Creek kinda thing -- not serious backcountry).

Hi Bruce,

I keep my 53 170B at BFI during the summer months and would be happy to go out on a demo flight with you. You can email me at (last name)7618@yahoo.com and we can work out a schedule. Do you live near Seattle? I’m in West Seattle.

Take care,

Matt (Cooper)
