News: Cessna 170 is returning to the line
Jun 03 2012Our Cessna 170, N8245A is back on line. All shiny and pretty after her wing repairs.
N8245A Taking Off
She is a 1952 Cessna 170B, with four seats and four place intercom, and a nice new interior. She has long range tanks and her 145hp six cylinder Continental engine can keep her in the air longer than most people’s bladders can last.
Where elase can you fly a piece of aviation history from the golden age or taildraggers? She even featured in the French press!
Fly her, so we can keep her owner happy that he put her on leasback with us.
