I don't think they do.
No, you'll get like 700 miles per tank. (I did some digging, using the 172 as the guide as that's the popular model that everyone has.)
Its like 1100 miles as the crow flies. If I time it right and have the wind at my back I might get close
I think they may not make the 150 anymore. But, they're still out there. I think the 172 is better with longer range.
There's a bunch of little airports around. You'll have to stop for fuel at some point - plus you've gotta get home. You should have the wind at your back on the way here. You're gonna be fighting the wind the flight back. But, you'll be flying much lower than the jet stream, so it's not like you've got 100 mph winds to contend with.
Yeah, you'd have to fuel up - but then you could land in Rangeley - assuming you can actually find it. I suspect a regular old GPS unit would help. I only pilot the plane when there are visual references, unless it's a bigger plane where all I gotta do is point and there's a real pilot there anyhow.
You can fuel up in Rangeley and only have to stop once on the way back, probably... That'd depend a bit on the headwind, but you should be fine.
I don't have a pilot license though
I've flown a 150 and a 172
