Ultralight flying is not for the rash, nor for the inexperienced.  Taking into
account 100% depreciation (would you buy a used ultralight?), it probably costs
as much as a C150.  But the first time you look between your knees and see 5000
feet of air below you, you realize that it is not the same thing as flying a
150.  It's a whole different way of flying; not better, just different.

You CAN do that in a 150!  All you need is a circular saw, a little paint...
