That's
how this C150 was sold: a fellow asked the FBO clerk if she knew of any
C150 airplanes that rarely flew.

My understanding is that "rarely flew" is not a desirable characteristic in
an aircraft.


He didn't say it was, he just said it was flyable, and sold for $8,000.



Are you looking at the same post that I am?

His words: "... a fellow asked the FBO clerk if she knew of any C150
airplanes that rarely flew."

Doesn't that imply that this fellow (the aircraft purchaser, not the
poster) was looking for an aircraft that was sitting around rather than
flying often?


maybe because he expects to get it cheap because it's not flying.
