Hey...check out the 1966 150F that was just added to the classifieds. It's a WAY above average 150F. Polished and beautiful. The price is not the cheapest around, but when you check out all that the owner has done to it, well worth the money. Anyone looking for a 1966 should check it out...even if your not...it's one to look at!

But she is a beauty! I noticed Wing Waxers did the paint and polish. Don't they put some kind of sealant or top coat on it that keeps the paint looking shinier, longer?

Sweet looking! Someone has to point out the negative, though. It's the incorrect spinner and the prop is polished. Can you get away with that if there is some kind of clear-coat on it?

Good plane for Harley riders. They've always been fascinated by shiny objects (like chrome or polished aluminum). grin

Had a nice conversation with Mr. Dodge about the plane. Sounded really interesting and looked like a good prospect.

I asked him about the 0 hour prop, and he stated that it was overhauled BECAUSE it was polished and the FAA didn't allow polished props, so its now painted...

Guess what?




Run a report on N4411. Strange cross linked SDR info.. Nuff said...

You know, the more I think about this cross linked SDR info, the more inquisitive I get.

What is going on here? Is this a mistake? I mean this is a C150 and the SDR info is for a IO470 type 310 cessna...

I think it is a mistake on someone's part.
But just so you know there are alot of 150's/ 152's that have had their nose gear folded uo due to students bad / hard landings.
As long as the repairs are done properly there should be no problems. I would not discount them from my search if I was looking to buy.

As for N4411. Bruce should get right on this and get that SDR straightened out.

N4411 is almost certainly not the original registration for Bruce's 150F, and was probably assigned in 1997.

Cessna normally requested and received registration numbers in sequential "blocks", which often corresponded somewhat to the airframe serial number. For instance, Cessna 150 serial number 15062559 is a 150F registered as N8459G, and serial number 15062561 is a 150f registered as N8461G. Bruce's 150F is serial number 15062560, and was likely originally registered as N8460G, which is currently an unassigned registration number reserved by a Mr. James McDaniel.

TIP: At least on Cessnas, always check registration and serial numbers close to the subject production airplane for additional information suggesting registration changes, as these were almost always assigned in blocks of numbers. Why check? re-registering to a new N number can sometimes hide damage history, unless you know where to look!

I don't think that's the case with Bruce and N4411, as the aircraft was registered to him on 12/08/1997, and there is apparently no damage history in the database for N8460G. Although currently unassigned, any documented damage history in relation to N8460G should still appear in the database (but, it is possible that the more recent reservation of this number by Mr. McDaniel has now erased any prior history! Still, Google and other sources show no recorded history anywhere on the web.)

It is also likely the number N4411 in the SDR report is a typo, and was likely not the original registration on any Cessna 310! N4410 is a PT-17 biplane, and N4412 is a Phoebus sailplane.
