Does anyone know if there is an stc or mod to add weights to the elevator of a 170A like the 170B?

This is what I'm getting when I try to upload a picture. I tried resizing, it was smaller. Nothing seems to work.

The image must be at least 0 pixels wide, 0 pixels high and at most 2000 pixels wide and 2000 pixels high. The submitted image is 2188 pixels wide and 4000 pixels high.

Thanks, I tried to upload the pictures I have but the file was to large. I tried to reduce it and then it was the wrong size. Anyway, I ordered what I thought should work from Aircraft Spruce a -9 but it's to big. I'll have to send back and try for another size. The -9 had a diameter of .344 I need ...

I'm going to the plane today. I'll get some pics. I don't have the Dip Davis mod.

Thanks, Don

Sorry, it's a1949 Cessna 170A. I've seen this done on other 170s as well.

Thanks, Don

How do I add pictures?

Okay, thanks. I'll see if I can get some good pics.

Thanks!

I have another question. If the the pilot side gear leg is sprung, would this cause the plane to pull to the left on takeoff on pavement? I don't notice it very much on grass but its a bit of a hand full on the pavement. It starts to happen right as the plane is starting to develop lift. Would the p...

Hello everyone, I just got my 1949 C-170A back from an annual inspection. I let the mechanic know before the inspection I had a concern about the plane not sitting level. The mechanic told me I have a sprung gear leg. I thought the one leg looked a little off. I have the P Ponk kit installed, is the...

Does anyone Know of a place to find these parts used?

I checked out my flaps and found the J shaped bracket with the two holes that bolts to the side is missing on both sides. is this a part I can still find? Or would it have to be fabricated by an A&P mechanic? Thanks, Don

Okay, I've read through some older posts, I see what's going on. just a bad design.

I've recently purchased a 1949 Cessna 170A. A friend of mine also has a 1949. His flaps lock in the up position mine do not. if the wind is blowing from behind it will blow then down and they will spring back up, is something wrong with my flaps?

Thanks, Don
