94-96kts IAS on 150, later 150's have the same airframe as 152 (last few M models got the larger tail). 152 is 2-5kts faster, nothing in it really. Much cheaper to maintain than 152, 40 deg flaps are fantastic - 4000ft runway, you can be at pattern altitude over the numbers (on final...), and still land on that runway. The thing drops like a brick with 40 degree flaps and full sideslip. Fun!
