170 inspection easter eggs

Not an all encompassing list, YMMV (your mods may vary) but if you're new to the 170 or looking to buy one this is pretty helpful. Cheers

Re: 170 inspection easter eggs

First annual done. This list came in handy, the flap handle rod connection mentioned was a new one for my mechanic and he has lots of Cessna experience. Also I found two radio knobs and a screwdriver in the belly. I was only missing one radio knob. :shock:

Re: 170 inspection easter eggs

Might want to add the Aileron Carrythrough cables at the top of the fuselage where the three small pulleys are. Area of high wear on the cables because there is not really sufficient angle change to move the pulley. I've had to do two replacements of the aileron carrythrough because of fraying, if you rotate the carrythrough where it touches the pulley, you'll see the wear. It looks fine until you turn it over.
