I have been on the lookout for a C-150 or similar airplane and have been shocked at the asking prices I'm seeing. A local one for sale has the original (45 year old) engine, interior, and radios, and is asking nearly $30k. I'm blown away seeing prices in the $30-40 range for an average condition 150. It seems like just a few years ago these airplanes were selling for half of that.
I've noticed similar price escalations in 172's, but admittedly I don't follow that market as closely.
What is up with these price increases? Is it BasicMed or some sort of nostalgia?
