It's a cool paint job, but  I have my doubts about a C150L as a bush plane, even with droop tips.

But I don't know everything... Grin

Is this a paint of a RL "Commuter" that is used for STOL work at unimproved strips?

It is a 1971 cessna 150L with AVCON engine conversion...Lycoming O-320 150h.p. Has a very low useful load but very good STOL qualities!  Can even be converted to taildragger.

With a 320 it sure would do fine! But for really rough ground it'd definitely be better as a taildragger, with some bigger main tires.

maybe some tundra tires? That cessna almost reminds me of the maule orion (with a longer fuselage though.) Nice paint BTW  Wink
