$23,000This Cessna is truly wonderful. Low total time and fresh top overhaul. Has all IFR equipment installed. Excellent plane to build time towards commercial/IFR/instructor certificates, training plane, or fun commuter! This 150 is listed for a bit higher than the average 150 because it"s in excellent condition, has a fresh top overhaul that will probably last another 10+ years, is ready to be IFR certified (easy 1-day tasks: pitotstaic check + CFII test the GPS & VOR on an approach and sign off the log book)I have put over $20,000 in parts alone (not including labor) into it over the past 18 months. I personally (and meticulously) did the overhaul break in and ensured the rings were properly seated - this plane does not burn much oil because the break in was done with great care! Oil has been changed regularly, plane has been flown regularly, I have kept it hangered whenever the weather was bad. The ONLY reason I am parting with it is because I recently upgraded to a 4-seater and my wife said I am not allowed to keep two planes...-IN annual (next annual due May-2019) (NO corrosion found during last annual)

-approx. 105 hours since top overhaul (STOH) + all new fine-wire spark plugs installed -5918 on the Hobbs meter, approx. 1980 hours SMOH, certified under part 91 so a major overhaul is never required - only optional.

This plane is still flown about 1-2 hours each week to keep the engine in prime-healthy condition.If you would like to speak to the shop that has done all the work on this plane, I can put you in contact with them.
