150 and 152 information is below the photos

 
 

1962 Cessna 150B N1124Y, sn 150-59524. I saw this pretty little Patroller at Branson, MO in March 2005. This is about as "true blue good ole '150" as you can get! Here's a closeup of the front.

 

1964 Cessna 150D N4496U, 150-60496. This "STOL" taildragger was on the east ramp at PAFA Fairbanks International, Fairbanks, AK, 5-10. 1964was the first year for OmniVision.

1966 Cessna 150F N8019F, 150-64119. I saw this150F on floats at 52B Greenville Seaplane Base, Moosehead Lake, Greenville, ME at the 2006 International Seaplane Fly-In. This is a really neat event held in September each year.

 

1967 Cessna 150G N150CM, ex N8699J, 150-66599. This is what I call a photo waiting to be taken! This pretty little gem on Edo 1650's is the first 150 that Cessna put on floats. A lot has changed since then! N150CM left the factory with a 100-HP, Continental O-200, which would probably make it a bit dull on floats. It now has a 150-HP, O-320 Lycoming with constant speed prop, and the Horton STOL kit. It's still a '150, but no longer "dull"!

Photo 2 - Easy does it - there's lots of other aircraft, and boats to share the space with. Photo 3 - "Charlie Mike" participated in the Slalom event at the fly-in and is pictured here dashing for the finish line.
 
1967 Cessna 150G N2861S, 150-66761. This 150 floatplane was sitting high and dry at PALH Lake Hood Seaplane Base, Anchorage, AK, in 4/08. Spring flying weather would be there soon!

1977 Cessna 150M, N704EK, 150-78551. It had rained a lot and by Oct. 2009 the grass had gotten out of hand at FWN Sussex, NJ. Echo Mike was exported to Argentina, and deregistered here in Dec. 2010.
 
Cessna 150 and 152 Information
 
Need parts? I unapologetically recommend Preferred Airparts for all of your Cessna airframe, engine, accessory, wheel and brake and other parts. They have a huge inventory of new surplus parts at big discounts, and 95% same-day shipment. Alaskans, Preferred is open until 8:00 p.m. and can get parts to you in good time!

 
Cessna 150 Serial Numbers by year, with notes. The official sn doesn't have a dash after the model, such as 150-59016 but I inserted one to make them more readable. This basic info is taken from TCDS 3A19, Cessna Service Manual, Wikipedia and other sources. Some of the links on the left have more details.
