Thanks! It’s been a fun project. Took me sitting on a county rental availability waiting list for 9 years but it gave me a place to store all my aviation schtuff... which I didn’t realize just how much I had packed away under the house. Oh yeah, P-Car items too including one of the 68 912’s.

No headsets, dang that is hard on the ears. I switched over to the Bose A-20’s and boy is it nice. I have a mic in the cab just in case but hope I never need it. Nobody could hear me via the background noise. I flew a lesson in a Citabria with the door off “just because” and that was loud. The 150 is a fun little plane, easy flyer and very affordable both in fuel and insurance. A good friend has a Longeze he is prepping me to fly while he is away. Now talk about a fun ride.

Yup, it is a T-6 canopy.
