I say 170, but since my tail number is 170SB, it usually causes more confusion and I have to repeat my answer. I'll ask next time what they would prefer. I don't like saying SkyHawk, and Skychicken isn't quite right either...
Ask them what their database says. It would be interesting to hear at least.
I noticed that on Mike Busch's SavvyAviator engine data site, it had a 205 as a Super Skylane too. I've been using Cessna. When queried, I'll say Super Skylane, and I'll go with Stationair which is what the local tower calls me
