The only Cessna I've ever flown with one was a 180 hp C-150 with one on the wing strut, used for glider towing. Back to your regularly scheduled C-bashing.

I gain 0.25 knot without them and maintain my dignity. I much prefer taxiing close to a Bonanza wing when needing a step up to check my tanks.

My Cessna 150 had the rearview mirror. Thought it was GREAT for maintaining runway centerline on departure climb! Didn't have the built on steps, though. Had to carry a ladder

Username Protected wrote: Jack, You are right about the cessna fitting in the hangar nicely with the bonanza.... I've got my 140 "spooning" my A36.... works great.. get two planes hangared with one hangar fee. Spooning!  I hadn't thought of it that way, but that's awesome. Now all I have to do is find my plane a mate.

Mike Thats bordering on just plain wrong. My plane would never be put into a position to be a Cessna's Beech.
