: I know 3 guys who are doing this now, and saving a pile... (by their own numbers) It is a Cherokee 140.. Yes, the wing IS in the right place.. Yes, it WILL haul 4 people (in a pinch, WITH a pinch!) And it is a good trainer, Nope, worst trainer ever. Well, after the Ercoupe, maybe. People without legs are alowed to fly them. they cover a multitude of sins whilst training And is tough and inexpensive. True. They are tough. And parts are reasonable, and available.. And it is a simple to maintain plane.. Also true. Ald although not a "fast" plane, has decent cross country speed... Did I mention that the wing is in the right place? A Cessna 150 is great trainer, but not much else.. It is slow, light, cramped, no payload.. You're comparing apples and oranges. the 150 has less than 2/3rds the burn for instance. Bertie |
