Bernie,

Really sorry to hear about your health, and your FAA physical...that is terrible you were on the wrong meds for so long.

Sounds like you have a really great airplane - I would really reconsider selling it, Bernie!

Any chance you could post 8-10 photos of the aircraft -- plenty of interior, exterior, inside the access door to the engine, prop, wheels/tires, etc? That would help the members here somewhat, plus anything you can add about it being hangered, etc.

We all wish you the very best, and really hope you can keep your plane.

I got $45,000 for mine but the economy was a lot better back then. It took me about 4 months to sell. Perhaps one reason for the long time to sale was that I advertised the price that I got for it. If you aren’t in a big hurry it might be a good idea to hold off until the economy gets better, but that might be a while.

I hope that you don’t have a problem passing your physical. Good luck with it.

Mike I have some pictures but dont remember how to get them out of my pictures to post them on the forum.

Bernie: So sorry to hear about your medical problem.

Re posting photos -look at Hung's post of a few weeks ago - he does a very nice job of detailing the entire procedure.

Your computer probably has a slot for your memory card, which you would need to use to import your pics into your computer.

Mine does it more or less automatically when I insert my memory device.

Good luck. Your plane sounds nice. Hope you can keep flying her.

Very sorry to hear about your health problem

If this can help you, I just went trough a complete refurbishment of my 1971 150/150 (0 time engine, new prop, new interior and carpet). Having personnaly spent a lot of money on this refurbishment, I really think a good condition low time engine 152/150 with Stol kit and long range tank, with nice paint should sell for at least 35k-40k$.

Mike I will try to send some pictures now.

I tried the info from Hung but did not work so I will go back and read it again.

Bernard - the two things I found which were not "intuitive" were:

1.) You can't do it from "quick reply," only from "reply." option.

2.) When you finish up-loading your pics, you must officially click "Submit."
