Cessna released both the 120 and the 140 in 1946. The 120 was the "economy" version, without electrical system, main wings without flaps, and side windows only in the doors. The 140 had an electrical system, a simple flap system, and aft quarter windows. Both 120/140 main wings were fabric clad. Many 120/140's have had the main wings re-clad in aluminum, and it's hard these days to find a 120 that hasn't had full electrics installed, as well as the rear quarter window. There are also certificates out there allowing upgrades to more powerful engines. The later Cessna 140A was introduced in 1949 with a brand new wing that was shared with Cessna's Military O-1/L-19 Bird Dog. This was an aluminum clad structure with squared wing tips, fowler type flaps, and a different profile than the older wing. The v-type under-wing struts of the 120/140 models was replaced by a single strut. It's the same wing that was used on the later Cessna 170, 150/152, 172 and 182. Landing gear geometry on Cessna 120/140 was such that it wasn't hard for inexperienced pilots to flip them on their back under hard braking conditions. A kit was available to move the wheels forward a few inches to reduce the risk of a tail-over. The Cessna 140A had it's main landing gear canted a few degrees forward to stave off this tendency. Any of them are sweet aircraft, easy to maintain, very simple, superb as teaching aircraft, and a lot of fun, allowing any pilot to build up hours while not breaking the bank. They are also very loud inside, even with a high quality headset, and in warm climates, can be hot in the foot wells. Side windows are opened in flight to help......note the 120 in the video!!

And these taildraggers will teach you so much about flying.

@@Interdiction I know ultralights are pretty much self service. I guess I have not learned all there is to know about the "sports license". Are those sports license planes still pretty much self service as ultralights since they are required to be so much self built? I just recently got to investigating private piolet's flying since retiring. I had ground school but no flight time back in the early seventies. At that time, professionally done power and airframe inspections needed to be done, and the cost would of been prohibitive for me costwise. I have been on several web sights about the sports license. But a really thorough in depth description is hard to find. Probably have just been on the wrong web pages.

Mike...excellent! Memories....tail wheel training in a Cessna 120 before the endorsement was required. Picked up an Ercoupe in Perry, Oklahoma and flew her home to Jenison, Mich. ( no rudder pedals) and a blast to fly with the sliding sides of the canopy open ( they drop into the fuselage sides giving you an open cockpit) Did my instrument training and spin training ( note..the rear fuselage/rudder reinforcement was installed) in the Tomahawk. Stalls are gentle..spins..right now..recovery standard. One can over rotate the Tomahawk and the nose will pitch up steeply causing an abrupt and uncomfortable situation but you really need to be out of sinc to do that. She is a wonderful bird to fly and as you can tell..I have fond memories in 93Papa. Thanks for posting this!

Tomahawk : I am a career aviator & engineer and worked on the first Tomahawks. As an instructor, I was more used to Kingair and the like. The Tomahawk is a GOOD surprise : anyone can fly de Havilland DH82a Tiger Moth (my initial type), a PA34 Seneca. BUT: fly these two WELL...and they will reward the pilot. The Tomahawk is the same. It is the best of the primary trainers - and I have used each one of them in this role, with students as young as 12 yr. The (low wing) visibility saved me from a mid-air when dumb C182 driver dumped his plane within one metre of my canopy. Had I been using a PA140, C150 etc, I would not be writing g this note of appreciation to a fine little trainer. CAUTION: nose u/c stroke is very long...but under-damped....prop strikes happen on rough/uneven surfaces.

If the Piper PA38 is such a great airplane, why don't you see them anywhere in flight schools or even in GA that much anymore? The C150 rules in flight training. A good straight tail 150 and a little elbow grease and you've got a fine airplane. Much more standard 0-200 engine -- thousands still flying. My time in the Tomajoke was limited, by me, and for a reason. It's junk.

I also did some flying in a Tomahawk back in the early 80's and after they changed the wing the plane still has some scary stall characteristics. Just as you approach the stall the plane can shudder violently and if you look back at the T-tail you will see it wobbling wildly. I had heard stories of it actually jamming the rudder and elevators during a stall.

This is the airplane I learned to fly in and bought from my CFI. I loved it mine was a 1947 8 A with rudder pedals and a C 65. Sweet traveler. I paid $6500 for it. Cruised at 110mph to 120mph. Cesna 120s are rare. Tomahawk was a.sweet simple craft to fly but I didn't like the solar oven cockpit. My PA 28 modified to tail dragger was a nice aircraft. I always preferred the side by side with stats on the CG and nicer to communicate with passenger and also way easier to get in. The T craftsnwere hugely popular in the 60s and could usually be found in good airworthy condition for for 3 to 5 grand. Nearly as flyable as a cub. By the way, I'm in my 70s. That's why I know.

When you have music in the background- it's more noticeable tho. Keep them coming, and, I really liked the Merlin PSA review- it excites me to think that you could be flying, after building you own plane no less- in less than a year (without the builder assist program). I liked that the gentleman who was building his own, was incorporating many high end mods into his (IFR instrumentation, ham radio, etc...) just to give a builder an idea of what is possible in that single seat aircraft.

Interesting compilation - all planes will be a good proof for your flying skills. I'm very pleased about flying a Piper PA 22 Colt from 1962. 108 PS, rd. 100 mph, 550 lbs useful load, Range ca. 500 mi for 14.000 bucks. It's still a cheap and solid alternative.

At almost 60 I purchased a1938 Aeronca Chief after only a few hours in a Cub. I flew it “home” with my instructor, took instruction in it and soloed in my own plane. I paid 14,000 for it and now have a total of about 17,000 total in it with new Slick mags. To me the experience of learning and soloing in my own plane is priceless. One drawback of a Chief is the low useful payload, about 350 lbs. Cruise speed is 90 and I don’t think I’ve ever burned over 4 gallons an hr, usually about 3.5. gallons per hr. It has an up exhaust continental 65 and I love it.

I took pilot lessons in 1963, when I was 17 (6 hours) but needed at least 8 hours to solo. We flew in a 1946 Piper Cub & an Aironca Champion (not sure of the spelling)! Ubfortunately, another student 16 year old Steve C. crashed the "Champion' & was killed & th school was shut down or went out of business ( BLAIRSTOWN AIRPORT, NJ! They offered to sell the PIPER for $1000. but I felt that it was too much money for a then 16 year old plane, but after seeing this video, I guess it would have been a very good deal!

Nice job on the video. Although the aircraft may be inexpensive, it's usually the upkeep that is the most expensive part of airplane ownership. Not to mention that some of these aircraft are more than sixty years old.

what was the first blue pin striped plane in the very beginning? love that set up, totally cool. small plane, hanger.....all in the back yard. I just flew in an ultralight class for the first time a few days ago and i imagine that maintenance wise these old planes seemingly could be reliable. they are incredibly simple in build and the quality i saw seemed solid.

Fun bit of education I got in the Tomahawk; if you slide the seats all the way back, it will fly 2-3 knots faster. Of course you probably can't reach the rudder either so only do this in smooth air.
