I purchased. now based at X51 down the road. Quickly discovered that getting old sucks. After flying it a few times in the pattern and suffering a blackout the fourth day, a decided to live another day and grounded myself. the airplane lost its pilot when the tail came up and the pilot came back at 400 ft. Landing was no problem. Scary ...yes. I lost the first class due to diabetes, took two years of appeals to get a third class and then, I went for basic med. Now is no medical at all. I have it on Barnstormers under "Cessna 150 taildragger if anyone is interested. Nice bird.

That's the reason that my wife "grounded" me and I sold my plane. I went on insulin at the end of 2016 and she was afraid that I would have a blackout someday.
Very nice, Victor. I'l l bet it will sell quickly.
Actually, it's Manny who's selling.
A few weeks ago, I went to visit Manny at X51 (Homestead) and the plane looks beautiful. I also used to know the previous owner. Seems a well treated bird that can give future pilots a great time.
Good luck Manny!

Thanks, Victor. lots of lookers and tire kickers. Last two interested were no shows. Too bad. Somebody will eventually step up to the plate and take it from me. Sweet deal.
