Club Homepage Forums Classified Ads Buy & Sell - Airplanes Only Buying my first plane...

Hi Josh! I'm a newbie to this site as well and this is my first post! You are brave and by golly we are all pulling for you! You are right, this site is great for info on the 150. The club has a great book on the Cessna 150 and I have been enjoying reading it. Ah to be a kid at age 42 again! I got my PPL while in the USAF in the Phillipines in1974 and flew for a while and then took a short break of 39 years. Well last week I flew a Cessna 150 as part of my getting current again!...and I'm 66! Luckily I found a great instructor...I flew the 150 and only needed assistance on the flare. Hopefully in 5-7 hours I will solo again. Boy some things you never forget. I would love to buy a 150 as well and was watching the 150E that Tony just sold. What a deal! There is a very similar 1965E for sale on Aircraft Shopper Online. Low airframe & engine times and by the photos beautiful just like Tony's. In fact it has a heavy duty nose wheel as well even though the seller doesn't mention it! BUT unlike Tony's, it's not IFR, doesn't have a current annual and the seller is asking $20,000! But there was just too much going on with me not being current to jump at Tony's 150. Now I'm renting the "ONLY" 150 available to rent in Phoenix and looking forward someday to ownership. Josh good luck!
