I have been looking for a not so shiny 150 - to use as a rental to students here. I had browsed this one but am not thrilled about it. Look up the registration - seems it was a fish spotter plane. I have alot of friends here that are fish spotters and they all fly long hours hours in the salt environment. Corrosion would be a major concern to me with that one - look at the yokes in the picture.
The other thing that would have my attention is the maintenance - fish spotters don't make $ by putting it back into the plane - airworthy - SURE - but the niceities tend to go by the wayside. See the radios - If it still works - use it type thing...

They call her the halffast airplane. They fly Tigers, 182's ,etc. Don't know what they're missing.
