The International Cessna 170 Association

If Gahorn's set doesn't work out let me know. I recently acquired a keyboard in a box of stuff I bought from that on line auction house!

Took two young men who are aviation crazy flying tonight. Here is how they summed up their flight.

Needed an assist strap attach bracket. Scored these 2 handles with brackets on FleeBay!

Now I just need to replace the leather wraps and sell the rest of the stuff that was in the box!

Have wanted these SOO bad but can't bring myself (or rather my IA) to drill the mounting holes.

Let us know how it goes!

PS - My wife hates the static slap ons that I use!

Date night so I took Becky to one of our favorite places - the Cottage cafe in Amboy MN. All around great night! Got to put another hour on my new cylinders, had a nice meal with wonderful desert, flew in cool 50 degree smooth air and got to catch up with the always pleasant member Mr. Wayne Eberhar...

Six of these!

Update.... All new Superior cylinders are on and the engine was test run for leaks. I've got about 5 hours on it over the last few days. No oil leaks, no oil consumption and it's running smooth. One question for those of you who have replaced all 6 cylinders - how tight or 'draggy' are those new cyl...

Okay maybe a brain lapse on my part and I just need to be steered a bit..... Been trying to read the performance charts for the Continentals found in the member section but can't wrap my head around those charts. Am trying to determine RPM for 65% and 75% power at various altitudes. First I calculat...

The engine shop miked out the cyls and one other one was at max limit so decided to order 6 new Superior cyls. Decided it was the more prudent thing versus having them all inspected and gone through. Figured I had them all off so now is the time. Also ordered a F&M filter adapter. Will flush the...

Just went through that same decision making process and have 6 Superiors on order.

Hey Dick! Hope you are celebrating in style!!!!

No screen collapse. Am getting flakes - no nuggets! After pulling the 6th cylinder we found the culprit. Pin plug as expected. Now time to decide what makes sense when having all 6 cylinders off. Looks like some flakes stuck to the oil ring thereby causing the oil use. Nothing on compression rings w...

Aluminum.

Looking for your thoughts... Some history: Engine TT 2641 TSMOH 952 About 5 hours ago oil consumption quickly jumped (went from 1 qt. every 6-8 hours to one quart per hour). Oil pressure has remained strong and steady. Oil temp has remained steady. No oil on belly. No oil leaks. Sudden high oil usag...

Glad you guys got there safely!

Good recap Richard.

Dubya - you must've been traveling WAY too much lately. Every picture with Meg has her looking at someone else! At least Mary Jo looks happy to have you back home!
