This plane has all the stuff you can put into an A150... well except ADSB. I wonder how much was spent on all the upgrades.

It's actually a 1972 MODEL YEAR.
I wonder if it retains aerobatic certification with a 180 hp engine? - the 150 HP converted Aerobats do not (except the 1970 model year only because it was omitted on the paperwork).
I also wonder how the Horton stall kit affects acro performance?

Brian,

Will wait for a correction on this, but my recollection is that either of those mods means the airplane is no longer certificated for akro.

My point being another Aerobat essentially ruined by mods that could be done on a stock 150

Yep, I was thinking the same thing. I'd take interest if a good C150J,K,L, or M comes my way with the big engine conversion. With the Aerobat 180, I'd just want to put back to original.

Which, I guess is another point. Maybe it's not a permanently lost Aerobat.

Bingo

Yep. Sad.
