The Cessna 152 evolved from the Model 150 developed some twenty two years earlier. After teaching the 'world' to fly the little '150' needed a 'makeover.' In 1977 the revised edition took to the skies with a fresh authority! The 'Trainer, commuter, and new aerobat' were all new. More powerful engines, comfort, and if you can believe it more safety to an aircraft with an impeccably sound safety record! The Cessna 150 and 152 still hold world records for safety, production, and sales! The Model 152 was and is adored for its pilot 'friendliness' and being economical to both purchase and maintain. Cessna's 150/152, aviation's answer to the Ford 'Model T.'
