The Cessna 152 is a civil trainer and civil utility airplane manufactured by Textron Aviation Inc., formerly Cessna Aircraft Company.
Summary[]
| “ | In 1977, Cessna set out to modernize their exceedingly-popular light aircraft Model 150, and the result was the 152 – a new two-seat monoplane that quickly became a general aviation classic and one of the most popular trainer aircraft of the post-World War II era. During the 152's full production run (1977-1985), Cessna manufactured over 7,500 aircraft, between its primary factory in Wichita, Kansas and affiliated Reims Aviation of France. Widely recognized as a workhorse aircraft, the 152 came stock with a more powerful piston-engine than its predecessor, an improved 'gull wing' propeller, and changes to its powerplant and cowling for reduced noise and vibration. While the 152 is forgiving of mistakes and easy to fly – with a high-wing configuration that translates to excellent cockpit visibility – it does put the 'light' in light aircraft, a trait that may add to the challenge of breezy crosswind trait that may add to the challenge of breezy crosswind flight, but also makes for generally docile handling and an overall enjoyable journey, whether you're a seasoned pilot of just learning to fly. |
