One of my partners in our Aztec owns a 170B, I've got a couple dozen hours
in the right seat.
Spring gear, so watch that final 2-3 feet of your decent, especially if you
have large tires and it hasn't been upgraded to C180 legs. Power is your
friend while taxiing. Plan and anticipate. Keep your feet moving.

Hi Gang,

In the next couple of weeks I'll be working with a fellow to finish
his
private in a C-170B. Does anyone have any notes, tricks, or gotchas I
should
know about? I have taildragger time in everything from a Quickie to a
Lodestar, but haven't flown the 170 for 28 years.
