Post by garciatr »

Hi Guys,

There is a 55/56 C170B for sale in TX right now. Here is the link to the ad on Barnstormers.

Has anyone looked at this airplane yet or know anything about it? I'm curious if anyone can give me any details.

Thanks everyone.

I know of it. And I know Dan Linn, the owner/seller. He works in the same bldg as I (SimuFlite/DFW) in the Bombardier area as a sim technician. He's an honorable guy and if he says something is true... I'd personally believe it is true.
His airplane has been featured in Flying mag, as well as Plane/Pilot and/or Private Pilot in years past.
If you like '56 year models, it is an excellent chance to own one, is my guess.

An originality nut (mostly) for the right reasons. ;)
