I was going to post a pic. That is exactly my plan later.

For my family a travel plane would really be unnecessary, we need a play plane and learn to fly plane. So I did the math and a C150 is the way I want to go, and I'm kind of favoring the 150hp engine ones that have a higher gross weight. The only issue, I don't recall fitting in these planes. I remember my legs were too long and I couldn't turn the yoke very well. The C172 was massive in comparison.

Here's me 23 years ago learning to fly in a C152:



But it's the goal. Teach the kids to fly. No CFI cost. Mogas STC. I've got big dreams.




^^^^ Tailwheel conversion? Hmmmmm.

I go to the local airports here around ATL and kind of scoff. A lot of the C172s have G1000s, min 5 hour checkout at $260/hr. Find the older C172Rs or Ss and it's still pretty expensive. Found one place that was cheap but the planes matched the price but the CFI there was really cool.

Speaking of A36 rental. Here, there is one in ATL. $415/hr. Any CFI is $80/hr. http://www.lanierflightcenter.com/fl...rates-pricing/ My guess is probably more like 25 hours of A36 time to rent that one but thats only because I saw a 1990 something PA32 for rent but 25 hours of PA32R time required.

Bucking Bar could provide some color on that.
