Fabric or metal wings?

Why not try to find a Cessna 150/150 HP
Taildragger. If you don't want the 150HP
engine, you could get a better prop and live
with an 0200 or 0235 in the 152.
I have owned 3 of them and the 150HP
taildragger was the most fun of any. 1200
ft a minute climb and will fly from 38 to 138
mph. Metal also to keep outside, Parts are plentiful and it is easy to work
on.
Look around and you can find a nice one.
Depends on what you can live with. But
remember, there is not substiture for Horse
power. Good luck.

Thanks Bill, not a bad idea. But I'm 6 foot 3 inches tall. I tried
sitting in a 152 one day. Interesting, but not useful. I could fly
it if I had to I think. But my knees were bumping the yoke and I
couldn't get to the rudder pedals without banging my lets on the
panel's bottom. I'm guessing the 150 is about the same size
internally.
