I just wanted to check and see if you had the proper Placards that are supposed to be on all 150/150's. It should be in plain sight, between the top of the passenger yoke and the glareshield. I think the font size is something like 20, in "bold contrasting color", but check the STC...I can't remember for sure. Anyway the warning is important for all passengers.
***WARNING*** You have entered a Cessna 150 equipped with a Lycoming O-320 150 to 160 HP engine. This aircraft has been known to create addictions in the unsuspecting that cannot be cured until such time as you deplete all bank accounts and home equity to acquire a similarly equipped aircraft. The symptoms of this condition are easy to recognize; a permanent smile that is painful to the facial muscles, a repeated "OH WOW" or "MAN OH MAN" during all climb phases of flight. A quick jerking motion of the head as you look back and forth between the altimeter and the departure end of the runway in disbelief (clinically referred to as denial) when you see that you are at pattern altitude.
These symptoms are incurable and eventually the only treatment known is to acquire or convert a 150/150 at all costs (which can be about the same as a lobotomy which may be a more acceptable approach...consult your physician)."

Congrat's Gary. Oh...for others wanting a 150/150, the former Acme Flying Machine (my old bird) is currently advertised in California in Barnstormers. Sweet 40 gallon fuel/GPS equipped airplane (with tnwing leather seats and carpet).
