Any 150 / 152 / 172 owners here who tie locally?

If so and if you fly recreationally, I'd like to mooch a flight so please shoot me a PM. And yes, I'll pick up the fuel and pop for a lunch. I'm getting the 'itch' and would like to go up for an hour or so to see how much I've retained from when I had my '68 150 (N99QC) and '77 172 (N738YL). Never buckling down to get my license, I have around 200 instructional and solo hours in both planes.

Interesting enough was that I looked up 99QC this morning and see that it's registered to a Scottsdale company, Tripple S Aviation that is tied to a local lawyer Gerald Sherill. The last time I looked, it was registered to the buyer in Colorado who I had sold the plane to.

I had a lot of fun in the 150, it was the plane I solo'd in. Had a handful of interesting flights such as opening the outside air vent tube where about 20 yellowjackets got blown into the cabin at altitude or trying to land (5 attempts) where the stupid deer would not move off the runway (Columbia, CA) when I lived in Sonora.
