Thanks CC , I am always interested in new STC,s and mods to 170 range . We will have to catch up one day as a friend from SA told me you had exceptional culinary skills besides flying.

I think Madras tips swoop down MUCH farther. I think these just later Cessna 172 tips that look deeper or perhaps some custom tips a little deeper than the standard Cessna tipGAHorn wrote:Are those Madras wingtip fairings?

The wingtips are part of the Sportsman Leading Edge STOL kit which is STC'd for the 170B.Bruce Fenstermacher wrote:I think Madras tips swoop down MUCH farther.
