Well... it was pointed out to me that this is Rolla Henry's 170. This is the picture I saw. Very nice machine and very nice picture taking. Looks like a twin to George's!

That is a fantastic photo of the 170! Don't know if it was a professional photo, a skilled amateur or just luck, but whatever that is 170 Quarterly News type photo. Really nice.

That is indeed a nice looking 170. It is not as identical to mine as might first appear.
Differences that stand out to me are the painted elevator tips and red-accent over polished wheel pants, and painted venturi. Also, my registration numbers are on the wings.
Whoever owns the one pictured clearly has a really nice plane and takes good care of it. I hope they're a member or plan to join.
