Spent a long, hot and humid summer in 1990 taking lessons in an old 150. I’m 5’10” and 200lbs and my instructor was 6’2” and around 225. Everything we did was in slow motion 😀

When your density altitude is 4000ft on a hot summer day..... Wait a minute, our feild elevation is 5600!

In somewhere around 1969 I stalled a C-150 at ~ 50 feet while landing - on purpose. I had just returned from overseas and was getting my recurrent flight done by my instructor at the Beale AFB aero club. When turning from downwind to base at 800' my instructor bet a cup of coffee I couldn't land on one of the lines across the runway (12,001'x300') which was almost directly under us. On base I stalled the a/c and got down to ~200 feet but wasn't going to make it. I turned on final and at ~50' I pulled it back into a stall and it went down - straight down. Good thing the ole C-150 had the really strong spring landing gear. He just said "you didn't need to crash the a/c to win a cup of coffee."

…. put a STC 150HP engine in that 150, and boy-o-boy, you’ve got a rocket!🚀

For 2.5 hours!

[@JDHambo]

An amazing plane

[@AirJockey100]

I enjoy flying my 150. It’s a 64 D model.

Excellent episode Christy and Baylee. It's great to see Baylee and Kevin back on the show. My flying club has a 152. I folded myself into it one day and quickly decided they are a no-go for me. At 6'4" I felt like a gorilla riding a toddlers tricycle. 😂 Thank you to Kevin for the history of the 150. Keep up the excellent work. Safe skies my friends 🇺🇸🛩️

[@clarencewiles963]

Pilots incoming. Nice to see the kids coming in at the end.

Leanred to fly in a 152. Great little airplane, though tight. I doubt we were ever under gross, but it flew well.

[@patrickheavirland3599]

Good morning from Minnesota! Great episode!

[@stevestevens9046]

C150 is what I did my training in back in 1996 great little plane for training

[@FlyingNDriving]

7:18 don't think Cristy understands what a utility category is. He was really trying to help her out and she kept pushing like it was a haha very funny joke

[@kellybasham3113]

Love your videos

[@glenjohnson9775]

The C150 aerobat has the same struts as the C182 of that era. This is a link to a Cessna promo film about the aerobat: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5O9pnyhhsd_pdUsi=_Bv3WqIAsPp79jCl

[@JimmyShot]

Loved it, but he was supposed to let mouse talk 😂

[@paratyshow]

👍✅

[@chrisescobar4199]

"Is it cause hes old" "Or because he looks like the low budget Sam Elliot?" Lol, my God, CRINGE!! I had to quit watching, seriously lol

[@N412BE]
