This is not a reply to throw your post out, however I would like to say that your experience and mine differ very much. Thats ok! However, I flew those airplanes for two whole summers almost every single sunny day there was and had zero mechanical hiccups except for an intermittent radio that was diagnosed on the ground at runup... zero availability problems, zero bad experiences, good instruction although I busted my butt every single day after work, after flying etc to get my license and did my whole private there in 50 hours and under $6,000 at 20 years old...
GREAT OPPORTUNITY to get it done and learn a lot by being pushed to learn some things yourself, THE BEST WAY TO RETAIN information after it is introduced correctly.
I love a C-150
