As far as mounting goes, the only other thing you have to consider is the W&B.
If you intend to fly the plane without the fairings at times, get W&B sheets for
the plane with and without main gear fairings. The nose wheel fairing is such a
pain to remove that you will probably never take it off if you can help it.
I had fairings on my '69 model. I found it moderately difficult to add air to
the tires with the fairings on (especially the nose wheel). Can't give you much
advice about that except to suggest that you might want fairings with little
doors for that purpose (like the 172 has). Dunno if they make such a thing for
150s. You also might experiment with different types of air nozzles -- I was
using the standard fitting on a 12v pump.

Because she smells like a new truck.
