The International Cessna 170 Association

A good friend of mine was cleaning out some of his "junk", and gave me some things he thought I'd like. He was an avid pilot, aircraft owner and motorcyclist. In the past he has owned several airplanes including a Maule and a Great Lakes. He also owned a motorcycle/bicycle shop for many ye...

Welcome from Michigan, Terri! You'll find a really great bunch of people in the Association. Looking forward to meeting you and seeing your 170 in Cody next year.

Does he fly a L-19 or a Boeing-Vertol CH-113?

As Yogi Berra said, "When you come to a fork in the road, take it!" Looks like you did.

Yep, lots of things radioactive that we don't think of. It's our everyday stuff, so, I don't worry about it. We're made to tolerate a certain amount.

Jamie donned one of my spare welding helmets and reclined in the front yard in a zero-gravity chair, while the dog was excited to have us spend time with her out in the front yard. I personally experienced the drop in temperature by standing beneath the pear tree, where the temperature remained low...

.... but I'm already preparing for the long lines waiting for a ride!

Is that an Isetta? Kind of rare these days.

I also wish to thank Mary, Velvet, and all the others than made the Deming convention a success. Carolyn and I enjoyed every minute of it.

Interesting, Bruce. I didn't know how many were still flying. I know my Dad looked into these before he bought the 170. His first plane was a T-Craft, about a 1938 or 39. Very pretty - yellow and black with pants and strut fairings. Chrome grills and other parts as the first owner owned a plating sh...

On one of my student cross countries I was going to Toledo Express. My instructor gave me a firm lecture about taxiing behind jets. The 747 had just come out, and, wouldn't you know it, there was one there. I gave it a HUGE berth! I don't think it was even running - just parked.

Haven't seen this on the forum. Sad to lose a 170.

Sorry to hear this. Hector Brown is one of our members, although I can't remember meeting him.
Someone else must know him.

Enjoy!

Took my BasicMed Examination this morning, completed my Self-Assesment Certificate this afternoon, and, If I'm correct, I'm good to go! I think this was easier, cheaper & less stressful than my previous visits to my AME (he can fully retire now!). Additionally, I only have to do this every four ...

I put mine on half way out. Not sure if that's where they were, but they look good. The old ones were long gone. They are upright on the right side (of the plane - down blade and inverted on the left side - up blade).
