I had a 150F which was the first of the swept tail Cessnas. Now They reckon that the previous models, with the straight tail recovered better from a spin then the "F" and after models. I had converted mine to a taildragger and the conversion prevented ( legal ) spins. Let's say that the spin recovery of the "F" was likely to raise the blood pressure. I never tried an "E" or ealier but maybe someone has and can make comment.
