Learn more about the Cessna 150G, N3686J

In 1959, the ‘World’s Premier Trainer’ was introduced by Cessna as the Cessna 150. This small, but iconic, airplane has gone on to train over 250,000 pilots- and counting. Its predecessor, the Cessna 140 tail-dragger, finished production in 1951, and Cessna went back to work designing an even better trainer and came up with the tricycle landing gear Cessna 150. The 150 also featured larger, more powerful control surfaces, and a “more modern” squared-off profile.

My Cessna 150G is beautifully restored with new paint, interior and upgraded with a modern glass cockpit. 

Even though this is an IFR-certified aircraft, I do not use it for IFR training.     If you are interested in an IFR rating,  and do not have your own suitable aircraft, I have partnerships with other aircraft owners with quality IFR avionics and a TSO-certified GPS.
