flying: Trying on a Cessna 150

I am trying to get a checkout in a 1976 Cessna 150M of Bode Aviation. I visited them and tried to fit in, and surprisingly the fit is much better than in many larger airplanes. I am starting to think that most reviewers are more concerned with the guys who are too wide, while I am too tall.

As usual for Bode, I am having a difficult time to get an instructor to call me back. They did the same thing to me in 2010 too. Back then, I gave up on them and went to get my Private from Del Sol. This time, they have the only airplane of the type around and so I need to make it work.

UPDATE: Got a call back from a senior instructor. Everyone is busy, so setting up and appointment with someone on staff for a Saturday morning this week (today is Monday).

UPDATE: It happened.
