Default Skycatcher and Me

As I see it in a few years my little 150M will be up against a new engine, avionics, paint and after all that (Possibly 30K) it would still be an old plane.

The new SC not only is LSA (no medical, owner maintained) but also is 30 years newer. It offers modern safety features like, a glass cockpit, AP, BRS Chute and the ability for TCAS. Best of all the cabin is as wide as a 206.

Seems to me Cessna kept the best of the old while incorporating the finest of the new. The price tag is a bit of a sticker shock but I think that acquiring one is the best offense towards insuring a future in the sky.
