Yeah T,
The C-150 was spiffed up with a bigger engine, no cowl but exterior engine
baffles for cooling.
Some of us are also wondering if the old Cessna Seat Rail AD reared it's
ugly head in this case. I'm sure they will be measuring what's left of them
to see. It stuck straight tail up in the middle of the runway with no part
of the aircraft existing beyond the main wing spar.

Can you clarify this? They were doing a banner tow pickup with a Cessna
150? I have done banner tows with a 170 (180 H.P.). You come across the
rope line dragging a grapple hook and then point your airplane up until the
parachute you are pulling comes taught or you run out of airspeed. It all
happens very fast. A 150 though seems a bit under powered for this.
Just curious however
