Cessna SIDS
So here are the choices:
C150L: Engine on condition: Mid range prop hours: Built in 1972 Or C150A Aerobat Reims 150AOnly 336 Reims-built 150A aircraft were made, of which only 141 featured the Rolls-Royce Continental O-240-A engine! This one is offered for sale with a low time engine that was overhauled in 2016, and fresh hours to run on the propeller. Perfect as a powerful aerobatic trainer, or private tourer with the 130HP Rolls-Royce providing confidence during every phase of flight. Aircraft / kit manufacturer: Reims 150A Model: FRA1509L Year: 1971 Engine type: O-240A Rolls Royce 130hp Engine Hours: 900TR Total airframe time: TT 9460 (Factory corrosion proofed) Engine History (if applicable): O/Haul 1/2/2016 Accident history / details: Nil Propeller type: McCauley 2-blade, fixed pitch SIDS: Compliant & all schedules available Propeller hours: 1830TR Storage history: Hangered for past 7 years Avionics list: Cruise speed: 95kts BEW: 551kg MTOW: 748kg Fuel Capacity / no. of tanks: 132ltrs / 2 tanks Now the major concern is that of Cessna SIDS and spare parts. Which aircraft would you pick and would you be very concerned about CASA SIDS? |
Have either had SIDS previously complied with/up to date?
|
Well you’d have to complete all the details on the first one as well and indicate prices before any meaningful comparison can be made.
|
Right... ok
|
The other question is of course, what is the usage going to be, is it strictly private or is it to be put on line??
|
Probably neither. Has to be an Aerobat for me. I have heard that the IO-240 is not supported with spares so throw the Reims away in 900 hours. There are other options around at the moment.
|
Is Qantas buying them?

Several 172's here in NZ for sale; if I had the dollars I'd have this https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/a...1?bof=IAw6VgkW
