Wrong!!
So I finally joined a small club after a year of sitting on the ground looking up. They have a 150 and a 172, and they want to get a 182. Unfortunately the 172 had a prop strike so it’s out for a bit. So I guess I’ll learn how to fly a 150 in the meantime and shake off some rust.
My question involves identifying what a 150 is to ATC. I’ll learn this anyways when I get checked out in it, but I figure I might as well embarrass myself here first.
When flying a 172 the call is Tower, Skyhawk blah blah blah.
The 150 is a “Commuter”, but I’ve never heard that called over the radio.
