<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Same here. $75 for a decent 172, $80 for the
slightly better one (more HP), $59 for the 150. I know I'm going to be spending
a lot of time building hours this summer, as I'm going up for my AF Pilot slot
come January, so I'm getting myself checked off in the 150 for cheap hours. At
6'4", I fit, but just barely. Getting checked off is gonna be... uncomfortable.
But when I'm alone, I'm fine.</FONT></DIV>
