Plane should be extremely clean with no damage history and good logs. Im not looking to restore so she needs to be flight reasy and very sound. Im asking alot and willing to pay for it. Message me with any info. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2003 Posts: 5,951 Likes: 3 Member/5000+posts! | | Member/5000+posts!

It was completely refurbished in 2002 and had a factory reman installed in 2005. Around $40,000 the last I heard. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2004 Posts: 13,969 Member/10,000+ posts! | | Member/10,000+ posts!

From the sounds of it, it needs a new owner badly that will fly it! Check out April 2003 Airplane of the Month for a picture and more info!

I will have a look, i have no knowledge about 150/50;s and what happens to useful load and usable fuel ect. Will have a look though. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2004 Posts: 13,969 Member/10,000+ posts! | | Member/10,000+ posts! Joined: Jan 2004 Posts: 13,969 | Thanks for your message.

On second thought, maybe a 150/150 isn't the right airplane for you after all, Nick.

Just some random thoughts that were crossing thru my mind. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2003 Posts: 5,951 Likes: 3 Member/5000+posts! | | Member/5000+posts!

The usable fuel, with all four tanks full, is 45.5 gallons. Fuel burn at 75% power is 8.4 GPH. Cruise sped upto ~12,000' ~130 MPH. Climb rate a Max Gross weight at DA=4000' >1000 FPM - at DA=9000' 700 FPM. Useful load = what ever you can close the doors on. If you are worried about flying over 1600 pounds total weight look for something else. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2004 Posts: 4,968 Member/2500+posts | | Member/2500+posts Joined: Jan 2004 Posts: 4,968 | What Wayne says....of course none of us who have every owned a 150/150 has ever flown over 21600 pounds before.

I once filled my plane so full of stuff that I had to humbly ask a fellow 150/150 pilot to carry my pillow.
