Empty weight floats wheels

Post by chopper 12 »

Hi

I'm looking around for a 170 b with 180 HP and I'm amazed at the differences in empty weights out there.
Could some of you guys with the 180 conversion post your empty weights wheels and also floats.
As well could you post the weight of some of the mods that you have on your plane so I can get an idea of what the different mods weigh.
Also for the guys on floats could you give me the weights and type of floats you have.
If anyone knows of a fair priced 170B with the 180 hp you could shoot me a PM.
THANKS FOR YOUR HELP
Dale
