Summary

We’ve received the donation of this great example of a very low time 1954 Cessna 170B. It only has 2084 TT, and the engine has 558 SMOH. It has recently been upgraded with VFR Garmin avionics; 375 GPS/Transponder (ADS-B In/Out), a portable Aera 760 GPS, SL40 Comm. It also has many desirable STCs added: Baggage Door, Alternator, Cleaveland Wheels/Brakes, Single Piece Windshield, Slick Mags, Spin On Oil Filter, Air/Oil separator, P-Ponk Landing Gear Beef Up, Glareshield/Instrument Lighting, digital Tach, Engine Monitor, Intercom, Rosen Visors, and Brackett Air Filter. The Interior looks great (Blue Vinyl & Fabric surfaces) and has a nice beige headliner. The paint is glossy and looks great from 20’ away. The only nit is that the fuselage paint is starting to lift away from some of the seams and flake off. The wings and horizontal stab look great!

Purchasing a plane from Wings of Hope helps fund our medical air transport both domestically and internationally.
