Handcrafted from mahogany wood and expertly hand painted. Ready to display with wooden model stand. Measures approximately 12" length x 16.75" wingspan. The Cessna 150 is a two-seat, tricycle gear general aviation airplane that was designed for flight training touring and personal use. The Cessna 150 is the fourth most produced civilian plane ever with 23,839 aircraft produced. Development of the Model 150 began in the mid 1950s with the decision by Cessna Aircraft to produce a successor to the popular Cessna 140 which finished production in 1951. The main change in the 150 design was the use of tricycle landing gear which is easier to learn to use than the tail wheel landing gear. The Cessna 150 prototype first flew on September 12, 1957, with production commencing in September 1958 at Cessna's Wichita, Kansas plant.
