The Cessna 150 continues to amaze me.

That is all.

Good or bad?

I'm assuming good because they are fun little guys. Did my spins in them, and had a blast.

 

[LS1 Life]

I call them Tonka planes.
Neat lil toys, that are a blast to play in.

 

[c172captain]

You're the next Rod Machado!!!

 

[escapepilot]

IMHO, the origional C-150 straight tail is a wonderful airplane. Too bad they don't make them in an adult size.

 

[TGatch]

That's my favorite plane to date. I did 99.9% of my x-countries in one.

 

[jhugz]

I love me 152 Aerobat's...that is all.

But anywhooo...I highly dislike 150's compared to 152's.

 

[SFCC/UND]

150 awesome for grass and short runways, but suck for climbing out

 

[falconvalley]

That's why that extra 10 horse power or so in the 152 makes it great! I used to own a 152 with a climb prop. Enjoyed every hour in that thing. I miss it...

 

[ctab5060X]

Don't understand why Cessna didn't make a few modifications to the airplane and reintroduce the 150/152 rather than blow money on the 162...

Oh it is a great thing.

 

[SFCC/UND]

Oh it is a great thing.

because it's dirt cheap?

 

[c172captain]

because it's dirt cheap?

Because the cockpit is so small that if someone farts in the plane, you'll both smell it equally and won't know who actually did it. The vibrations from the engine disguise the escape of gas!

Ohh man. Thats soo funny!!!! I have one of those students that this kinda thing goes on in the plane when we get together!!!

:laff: then you need to buy a fart underwear. The vibrations make me wonder if the rivets will fall out and hit someone on the ground. Then I get in trouble because I was dropping things from a airplane.

 

[Douglas]

That was part of it when I was buying, for sure.

I will tell you this, I've flown a lot of different 150's and 152's and it's always been pretty amazing to me that over years and years of development, nothing really changed

Still, when I just want to go fly and screw around, it's my weapon of choice. Until I can buy a cub or something.

 

[SFCC/UND]

I'm still amazed I got one up to 11,000 took me forever, but I made it.

:yeahthat:

Yup, 150's are fun. Unfortunately they are becoming a hard sell to prospective students, who seem to associate a small and cozy airplane with something dangerous. I'd buy one instantly if in good shape. Should be a Aerobat though...
