The main changes in the 150 design were the use of, which is easier to learn to use than the of the Cessna 140, and replacing the rounded wingtips and horizontal and vertical stabilizers with more modern, squared-off profiles. In addition, the narrow, hinged wing flaps of the 140 were replaced by larger, far more effective. The Cessna 150 prototype first flew on September 12, 1957, with production commencing in September 1958 at Cessna's, plant. 1,764 aircraft were also produced by under license in.
These French manufactured 150s were designated Reims F-150, the 'F' indicating they were built in France. American-made 150s were all produced with the 100 hp (75 kW) engine, but the Reims-built aircraft are powered by a -built Continental O-200-As, with some powered versions. All Cessna 150s have very effective that extend 40 degrees. The best-performing airplanes in the 150 and 152 fleet are the 1962 Cessna 150B and the 1963 Cessna 150C.
Thanks to their light 1,500 lb (680 kg) gross weight and more aerodynamic rear fuselage, they climb the fastest, have the highest ceilings, and require the shortest runways. They have a 109-knot (202 km/h) cruise speed, faster than any other model year of either the 150 or 152. All models from 1966 onwards have larger doors and increased baggage space. With the 1967 Model 150G the doors were bowed outwards 1.5 inches (38 mm) on each side to provide more cabin elbow room.
Production A total of 22,138 Cessna 150s were built in the United States, including 21,404 Commuters and 734 Aerobats. Reims Aviation completed 1,764 F-150s, of which 1,428 were Commuters and 336 were Aerobats. A Reims affiliate in Argentina also assembled 47 F-150s, including 38 Commuters and 9 Aerobats. Of all the Cessna 150-152 models, the 1966 model year was the most plentiful with 3,067 1966 Cessna 150s produced. This was the first year the aircraft featured a swept tail fin, increased baggage area and electrically operated flaps. Design succession The 150 was succeeded in the summer of 1977 by the closely related.
The 152 is more economical to operate due to the increased TBO (time between overhaul) of the engine. The 152 had its flap travel limited to 30 degrees from the 150's 40 degree deflection for better climb with full flaps and the maximum certified gross weight was increased from 1,600 lb (726 kg) on the 150 to 1670 lb (757 kg) on the 152. Production of the 152 ended in 1985 when manufacturing of all Cessna piston singles was suspended.
In 2007 Cessna announced the two-seat successor to the Model 150 and 152, the. Variants 150 The first model year of the Cessna 150 carried no suffix letter. It was available as the '150' or the upgraded 'Commuter'. The engine was a 100 horsepower (75 kW), the gross weight was 1,500 lb (680 kg) and flaps were actuated manually with a lever between the seats. Production commenced late in 1958 as the 1959 model year.
The cost was 6,995 for the Standard Model 150, $7,940 for the Trainer and $8,545 for the Commuter. The 1960 model introduced a 35-ampere generator on the Commuter.
The 'patroller' was also introduced in 1960. This was a standard 150 with windows on the lower doors, 35 long-range fuel tanks and a message chute for dropping packages to the ground. Production was 122 in 1958, 648 in 1959 and 354 in 1960. 150A The 1961 model incorporated enough changes to justify a suffix letter and thus was designated the “150A”. The 'A' had its main landing gear moved aft by two inches to eliminate the problem of the aircraft ending up on its tail while loading people and baggage and also to improve nosewheel steering authority. The 'A' also had 15% larger rear side windows and new adjustable seats. 344 were constructed.
150B The 150B was the 1962 model. It had a new propeller that increased cruise speed by 2 knots (3.7 km/h) and the option of a two-passenger child seat for the baggage compartment. 331 'B' models were built. The Commuter version cost US$8,995. 150C The 1963 model was the 'C', which introduced the option of larger 6.00×6 inch tires to replace the standard 5.00×5 tires and fuel quick drains.
472 were completed. 150D The 1964 'D' model brought the first dramatic change to the 150 – the introduction of a rear window under the marketing name. The rear window changed the look of the 150 and cost 3 mph (4.8 km/h) in cruise speed. It also resulted in a larger baggage compartment and a greater structural weight allowance for baggage from 80 to 120 lb (54 kg). The unswept tailfin from previous years was retained for another two years. Elevator and rudder mass balances were increased to reduce flutter potential caused by the less aerodynamic rear fuselage. The gross weight of the aircraft was also increased in 1964 to 1,600 lb (730 kg), where it would stay until the advent of the.
804 150Ds were built. Many people find the new cabin more 'airy' and pleasant, due to the increased light. 150E The 1965 Cessna 150E saw only the addition of new seats, although the standard empty weight went up 40 lb (18 kg) that year to 1,010 lb (460 kg). The 'E' model saw production increase to 1637 aircraft. 150F The 1966 model saw great changes to the 150 design. The tailfin was swept back 35 degrees to match the styling of the and other models.
The cabin doors were made 23% wider, new brakes were brought in and the 6.00×6 tires were made standard. The previously manual flaps were now electrically actuated through a panel-mounted flap switch. The old electric stall warning system was replaced with a pneumatic-type.
The baggage compartment was enlarged by 50%. A total of 3087 of the newly styled 'F' models were produced. 1966 was also the first production of French Reims-built F-150s, with 67 built as the F150F. 150G In the 1967 model, the instrument panel was redesigned.
The doors were 'bowed' out to give three more inches of shoulder and hip room which was needed in the small cabin. The 'G' model also saw a new short-stroke nose oleo introduced to reduce the drag created by the nosewheel assembly. The previously fitted generator was replaced by a 60-ampere alternator, reflecting the increasing avionics that the planes were being fitted with. The 'G' model was also the first Cessna 150 variant certified for floats. A total of 2114 'G' models were built, plus 152 built by Reims as F150G. 150H The 1968 model 150 was designated the 'H'. It introduced a new-style center console, designed to improve legroom.
A new electric flap switch was also fitted that allowed 'hands-off' retraction of the flaps, but not extension. 2007 150Hs were built in Wichita, with 170 built by Reims as the F150H. 150I There was no 150 'India' model as Cessna didn't want it to look like a Cessna 1,501. This did not prevent Cessna from designating an 'India' model however.
150J The 150J, in 1969, brought a new key-operated starter that replaced the old 'pull-style' starter. The new starter was more 'car-like' but not as reliable as the old one and also more expensive to repair.
An auxiliary power plug was also made available as an option in 1969, along with 'rocker' style electrical switches. 1714 'J' models were built, plus 140 built by Reims as the F150J. 150K 1970 was the year that Cessna introduced the A150K Aerobat, a Cessna 150K with limited aerobatic capabilities. It retained the 100 horsepower (75 kW) all 150s used, but differed from the baseline 150K in having more structural strength, being rated +6/-3 g. Other 'aerobatic' features included four-point harnesses for both occupants, dual overhead skylights for upward visibility (which, while standard on the, had not been part of the 150 design) jettisonable doors, a more sporty checkerboard paint scheme and removable seat cushions so that parachutes could be worn. In 1970, an Aerobat cost $12,000 as opposed to the $11,450 price for a 150K Commuter model.
Both the new Aerobat and the non-aerobatic 150K also sported new conical cambered wingtips in 1970. A total of 832 'K' models were built, including A150Ks.
Reims built 129 as the F150K and 81 as the FA150K. 150L The 150L had the longest production run of any 150 sub-model, being produced 1971–74. New in 1971 were tubular landing gear legs with a 16% greater width (6 feet 6 inches (1.98 m) to 7 feet 7 inches (2.31 m) for better ground handling. These replaced the previous flat steel leaf spring gear. Also in 1971, the landing and taxi lights were moved from the wing leading edge to the nose bowl to better illuminate the ground. They were an improvement, but bulb life was reduced due to the heat and vibration of that location. They were moved back to the wing on the 1984 model.
The 'L' also introduced a longer dorsal strake that reached to the rear window. This was done more for styling than for aerodynamics and the empty weight accordingly went up 10 lb (4.5 kg) over the 'K'. 879 were built in 1971. In 1972 the 'L' received new fuel filler caps to reduce moisture seepage, and better seats and seat tracks. 1100 were built in 1972. The 1973 'L' model brought in lower seats to provide more headroom for taller pilots. 1460 of the 1973 models were built.
The final 'L' model was produced in 1974. The only change this model year was the propeller on the A150L Aerobat, to a new Clark Y that increased cruise by 4 mph (6.4 km/h).
1080 150s were produced in 1974. Total 'L' production was 4519, plus the 485 built by Reims as the F150L and 39 FA150L Aerobats. An additional 39 were built in Argentina by DINFIA as the A-150L. FRA150L Aerobat Reims produced a variant of the FA150L Aerobat with a Rolls-Royce engine, 141 built.
150M The final Cessna 150 model was the 150M. It introduced the 'Commuter II' upgrade package that included many optional avionics and trim items as standard. The 'M' also brought an increased fin height, by 6 inches (150 mm).
This increased the rudder and fin area by 15% to improve crosswind handling. The 'M' was produced for three years: 1975–77.
Inertia-reel restraints became available as an option with the 1975 model year. 1269 1975 model 150Ms were built. In 1976 the 'M' gained a suite of electrical to replace the previous used.
It was also fitted with a fully articulated pilot seat as standard equipment (this seat had been optional on some earlier models). 1399 were built.
The 1977 model year was the last for the Cessna 150. It added only 'pre-select' flaps, allowing the pilot to set the flaps to any position without the pilot having to hold the switch during flap travel, enabling the pilot to concentrate on other flying duties. Only 427 1977 model 150Ms were built as production shifted to the improved in the early part of 1977.
The many refinements incorporated into the 150 over the years had cost the aircraft a lot of useful load. The very first 150 weighed 962 lb (436 kg) empty, whereas the last 'M Commuter II' had an empty weight of 1,129 lb (512 kg). This increase in empty weight of 167 lb (76 kg) was offset only by a gross weight increase of 100 lb (45 kg) in 1964.
The 152 would bring a much-needed 70 lb (32 kg) increase in gross weight to 1,670 lb (760 kg). A total of 3097 'M' models were built during its three-year run. An additional 285 were built by Reims as the F150M and 141 FA150M Aerobats. Reims also built 75 A150Ls with F150M modifications. FRA150M Reims produced a variant of the Rolls-Royce Continental O-240-A powered FRA150L Aerobat with the same improvements as the F150M, 75 built. Flight characteristics The Cessna 150 is simple, robust, and easy to fly. For these reasons it has become one of the world's most popular basic trainers.
Cockpit visibility is generally good other than directly above the aircraft, where the view is blocked by the wing. This obstruction is of particular concern when, as is the case with most high-wing aircraft, the inside-turn wing blocks vision in the direction of a turn. As a partial remedy to this some 150s, including all Aerobats, feature a pair of overhead skylights. Due to its light weight and light wing loading (10 lb/sq ft), the aircraft is sensitive to turbulence. Power-on and power-off stalls are easily controlled. Normal spin recovery techniques are highly effective. Modifications available There are hundreds of modifications available for the Cessna 150.
