1952 Cessna 170BSingle-Engine Piston Aircraft • Alberta, Canada

This 1952 Cessna 170B, registered in Red Deer County, Alberta, is offered at $169,000 in what the owner describes as the Holy Grail configuration for backcountry exploring, promising 180-class performance without the associated operating and insurance costs. The aircraft is powered by an Avcon Lycoming O-360-A1A conversion, with the engine having just 58.0 hours since time of overhaul. It is equipped with Cessna 180 landing gear, a Horton STOL kit, and a lightweight MT constant-speed propeller (model MTV-15-B/205-58, TSO 282).
