Cessna 150 M model Tail wheel, 150 HP, Stol kit and long Range tanks. Mid time or lower Engine. Interior not important, can do that myself ( with help from TNN wings) Avionics also just basic,since I plan to fly under the radar. Apparently these things are kind of scarce. The three I looked at, the owners owed more at a Bank than the things were worth. The last one I looked at the pilots wife wanted the money pit gone but he would not budge on price. Was seriously looking at 180 for the load and range but they are pricy for what I do. I sold Mightymouse with this intent since I puckered up at every sandbar and rough field for fear of folding the nose. Travel to anywhere in the US not an issue. More air miles than I can use.

Dale,

Slightly off Company...but what about a 180hp early model Maule - they have pretty much what you are looking for here in a "modified" 150...same could be said for a 160hp Pacer

There are a few listed on Barnstormers right now that seem reasonable in the way of price and fitout - for example Tap Here [barnstormers.com]

I know, I know, they're not a Cessna's, but they are built for the sort of stuff your talking about, and with the general spec's you've mentioned.....

Cheers

First, I just gotta ask. Why are you limiting your self to just the 150M model, Dale?

How about a Pacer with 180HP and constant speed prop? I just happen to personally know the owner of the STC! wink

Good luck on your search Dale.

It'll be interesting to see what you find.
