What is a bush plane?
Usually a combination of things. Some of the more important features would be good prop clearance to avoid obstacles on the ground, enough horsepower to make short take-offs and steeps climbs, a STOL kit on the wing to land and take off at slow speeds, and big tires for rough strips. Our 1953 Cessna 170B has all of those things and more.
Here is a list of the modifications that make this one of the best 4 seat bush planes ever made:
180 hp engine upgrade (Lycoming O-360)
Horton STOL kit
29" Tundra Tires
Cleveland Double-puck brakes
Windshield V-brace
L-19 tailwheel assembly
LED landings/taxi lights
Digital EGT/CHT gauges
Removable rear jump seats
Lightweight interior/exterior
