I have to say, none of those new LSAs look very good at all. HAving

that, I haven't flown one, so I really ought to see what one will do

Not that what I think matters, but I think that the 150/2s are great
looking, even better looking than the 172s. Doesn't the 150/2s
qualify for LSA status?


Nah, way too heavy. I thnk LSA max is 1320 lbs.
I like the look of the older razorback 150s, but the rear window ones
are a little, uh, dumpy looking.
They do the job, though.


I would sonner buy them over the new one and
just use the balance to fully pimp it out(zero time engine, new prop,
new interior and paintjob, new toys for the panel...etc.), but that's
just me.

About the only previsouly certified airplanes that qualify are things
like Chiefs, Luscombe 8A (the 8E is too heavy) and stuff like that. The
150 grosses around 1500, maybe a bit more.
