Aircraft maintenance manual

Post by Danwaters »

I should know this by now, but did Cessna produce an AMM (aircraft maintenance manual) for the 170?

The title 100 Series, '62 and Prior covers the 170 and there is lots of applicable information but you will find little specific for the 170. Don't spend a lot of time studying how to rig the nose wheel a 150, 172 or 175. Rigging the elevator on a 150, 172, 175 or a 180 may similar to the 170 but don't use any specifications such as cable tension or travel. The 170 may have different specifications.
