Looking for any 170B owners near Denver, CO

Post by Joe Gilmore »

I'm looking for a member who lives reasonably close to Denver, Colorado who would give me a ride in his 170B. I'm a CFI/A&P who used to own an Aeronca Champ back in the 1980s, and am considering getting back to my tailwheel roots. I think the 170B looks like a great airplane, and would like to see and experience one before I start looking to buy. Will be happy to buy the gas and lunch.

And I'll bet he will do just that BL after he gets an up close encounter with a 170 and can not look back.

Yes he can. If you look on the right side of the screen near his information you will see the little blue PM icon. Click on that to send a message to that person privately. D

Yes he can. The PM function is a basic accessory for all FORUM members. We could turn it off but we don't though an individual can turn it off for their account.

Joe, unfortunately we offer members a little benefit to being a member. The members only section is available when you join the TICA 170 Association. The librarys for this organization is amazing and you will benefit from joining but we have expenses to make this electronic thing work and the membership dues help defray the cost. Hopefully you will understand but the fee to join is a step to joining the family. Capche!

Yes, I know there is a fee for members only material. That's why I joined, and paid my $45.00 online via Paypal. But I did not receive a confirmation email, or a code to access the members only material.

Welcome Joe,
It takes a day or two for Jan to get caught up. You will be really happy being here. This is a very active group. It is very helpful with many resources. This is one of the better airplane type forums I belong to. If you got a question fire away. Many times it will only be a couple minutes before you have an answer. I have seen questions answered in less then a minute a few times. Anyway, hopefully you will get your ride in Denver. You will definitely have fun flying one of these airplanes. D
