I have a 1975 Cessna 150 Aerobat. I want to replace the standard 26 gal (13 per side) fuel tanks with the optional 38 gal (19 per side) long range fuel tanks. Can anyone tell me where I can have this done and the approximate cost.

It seems that having to tear them down to that extent and perform those inspections on the spars on the wings and the tail surfaces is going to be very expensive. Also having to...

At this time of year the wasps start a nest in my ailerons a couple of times each week. I'm allergic to wasps so each time that I go out to the airport I look for the newly started nests and spray them with Raid flying insect killer.
